Preserving the spirit of the West,
in the face of rapid and continuing population growth, requires the building of
the deep connections between the people and the land that they inhabit. Rather
than lamenting, we should celebrate increasing human visits to natural areas
because of the role that such visits play in maintaining the West's unique
quality of life and the environmental protection constituency. The challenge is
to develop and implement environmentally sound strategies for meeting the need
for quality visitor experiences.
The focus
of efforts to meet this challenge is, of necessity, the boundary which divides
the West's natural areas from its rapidly growing urban population. It is here
where most of the pressure for human visitation occurs and where the greatest
opportunities exist for building or breaking human/environmental connections.
In Colorado, these pressures are felt most acutely along the major
intermountain highways and in the foothills to the west of metropolitan Denver
and other "Front Range" cities. It is for places like this (as well
as the West's great national parks and wilderness areas) that the Connection
Ecology project has been working to develop planning tools for better balancing
human and environmental interests.
