In 2010, I semi-retired to Golden (I still work part-time in my firm’s Denver office), joined the CMC, took WTS, and achieved a “C” rating. I’m enrolled in the Trip Leader, Wilderness First Aid, and Avalanche Avoidance programs. I’ve started to live the dream. I marvel at the history of the organization, at the expertise and selflessness of volunteers, at the exuberance and friendliness of members. I’m grateful for the organization’s many, many gifts to me and the community. I wish to be elected to the Council, so that I might, in some small way, give back. David W.

  • Vallecito Creek and Pine River Information Sheet
    River Protection Workgroup Information Sheet Vallecito Creek and Pine River (Version: 7/5/11) http://ocs.fortlewis.edu/riverprotection This Initial Information Sheet was prepared to inform participants involved in the Vallecito and Pine River Workgroup. This version can be updated and changed as the Workgroup proceeds and as new information is made available or requested. Please refer to the Glossary of Terms and the Glossary of Agencies handouts for clarification on any words used or entities mentioned (documents available at the meetings and on the Web site). Area of Focus : The area of focus includes the watersheds of Vallecito Creek and the Los Pinos River upstream of the USFS boundary with private land. The area drained by Vallecito Creek at the USFS boundary falls mainly in La Plata and San Juan Counties, but also includes portions of Hinsdale County. The area drained by Vallecito Creek includes no private land. The area drained by the Los Pinos River at the USFS boundary falls mainly in Hinsdale County but does include small portions of La Plata and San Juan Counties. This area includes no private land. Please refer to the last page of this document for a map. The San Juan Public Lands Draft Land Use Plan (2007), found Vallecito Creek and the Los Pinos River (and 6 tributaries), upstream of the USFS boundary, to be “eligible” for Wild and Scenic Rivers (“WSR”) designation. In addition, the Los Pinos and 6 tributaries upstream of the USFS boundary were found to be “preliminarily suitable” (Draft Land Use Plan 2007). Read on for more information.
