Schrecka2fcfe32c1f76dc9d5ebe09475fa72e5633cc36dRanching, it seems obvious, is closely tied to land. Cattle depend in it for food and water, and ranching families like the Hannas depend on it for their survival. This close relationship between ranching and land means not only that the industry can be hyper-sensitive to changes in the surrounding landscape, but that ranchers can also have a significant impact on the land and their environment. Though ranchers do have some control over the health of their land by maintaining responsible land management practices, some forces, such as urban development, are out of their hands. The Hanna family, and Kirk Hanna in particular, were ardent proponents of both responsible ranch management and thoughtful urban development in Southern Colorado.
