About Ryan
The BLM’s North Park Landscape has some of the best core sagebrush habitat in Colorado and also hosts one of the largest wetland complexes in the state. To keep the resiliency of this landscape the BLM, IWJV, and Colorado Open Lands partnered to support a Landscape Coordinator to work out of the BLM Kremmling Field Office. Ryan Holt has accepted this opportunity and will focus restoration efforts on aquatic, riparian, wetland, and terrestrial ecosystems throughout the landscape.
Holt will be part of an interdisciplinary team planning and implementing projects that will build resilience and resistance to threats such as climate change, invasive species, drought, energy development, and fire frequency. The projects this position will foster will generate groundwater recharge to ensure the resource can continue to be available for downstream communities who live with increasing frequency of drought conditions. This investment will also strengthen communities through enhancement of recreational opportunities and the preservation of historic and cultural sites such as the Northern Ute Trail.
