Colorado has recently felt the increasing effects of devastating wildfires. Federal and state agencies have been working hard to prevent the risk of catastrophic wildfires on public lands, but 60% of Colorado’s land is privately owned. Wildfire isn't contained by property lines and landowners in Log Hill Mesa set out to reduce the risk of wildfire spread on their property.

The Montgomery family partnered with Colorado West Land Trust, West Regional Wildfire Council, and The Log Hill Village Parks and Recreation District to protect their land not only from development, but also from the potential spread of damaging wildfires. This project serves as an example of what private homeowners can do to reduce the risk of yet another devastating wildfire.
