Description
The Bureau of Land Management cares for 600,000 acres of public land in the upper Gunnison River basin in southwest Colorado. Collaborating with a number of public and private partners, we guide the protection, management, and sustainable use of a wide variety of resources. Ecosystems within the GRA range from dry sagebrush steppes at 7,000 ft.; to forests of aspen, ponderosa pine, Douglas fir, lodgepole pine, Engleman spruce, and subalpine fir; to alpine tundra meadows that reach to over 14,000 ft.
