Environmental group sues Forest Service over Wolf Creek resort development
The U.S. Forest Service has failed to allow sufficient public involvement in plans for development of a large resort near the Wolf Creek Ski Area, an environmental group alleged in a new lawsuit.
Colorado Wild of Durango filed two lawsuits in Denver federal court on Thursday demanding access to certain records and seeking to bar the Forest Service from giving the resort developer access to his landlocked property without public participation in an environmental review.
Texas billionaire B.J. “Red” McCombs is planning the Village at Wolf Creek, a $1 billion, 288-acre property east of Pagosa Springs in Mineral County that would have room for about 10,500 residents and more than 220,000 square feet of commercial space.
