We are very pleased to announce the conservation of the 780-acre West Creek Ranch in the heart of Unaweep Canyon. This gorgeous ranch runs along the Unaweep-Tabeguache Scenic and Historic Byway and contains over a mile of West Creek.

Landowner, Beeman Casto was born on the property and still ranches it with his wife Jessie (pictured above in photo by Josh Duplechain). Now their great-grand children help out on the ranch that has been in the family for 6 generations!

Thanks to Great Outdoors Colorado, and the Federal Highway Administration and The Conservation Fund for partnering with MLT to preserve the lands that add so much to the heritage and quality of life we enjoy in western Colorado.
