HD Mountains

The San Juan National Forest recently released final plans for turning the HD Mountains Roadless Area, a 40,000-acre area in southwest Colorado, into a massive industrial gas field. The Forest Service's reckless plan endangers people's lives and property, and devastates forests and watersheds, including many of the last remaining stands of ancient ponderosa pine forests in the Southern Rockies and Ignacio Creek, perhaps the most pristine, low-elevation watershed in the entire San Juan Mountain range. Coal powered plants are also of grave concern in the area.
