Save the Roan Plateau in Colorado
- by: RavenSky
- recipient: State of Colorado, Department of the Interior
The Roan Plateau is an area 3,500 feet above sea level in the Colorado River Valley. It contains some of the last wild tracts of Public land in this region. It is an area still rich in wildlife such as Mule Deer, Elk, Black Bear and Cougars. In addition it is prime habitat for Peregrine Falcon. There are stunning box canyons diving down to the cliff walls and many waterfalls and streams flow in the region as well. This area is in danger of gas drilling and unless it is desilgnated as Official Wilderness it could be another loss of prime habitat for the Flora and Fauna that are in this area. Development should be a no-no we have to do our best to set aside what we can.
