This is our 48th summer on our allotments in the San Juan Mountains and I am proud of the fact that the water, sub-alpine and alpine environment, and aesthetic aspects of the wilderness have never been more pristine. Plus, I am proud that we are a member of the American agriculture community that helps to feed this country, much of the world, and even Ms. Morton.
As for High Country News, consider the source, a biased and radical environmental rag that attacked me, agriculture as a whole, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife. I will be sending a letter to set the record straight, but I doubt that they will print it.
