When we follow, it leads us to new experiences and new understanding of natural systems, ourselves, and the peace that comes from living in harmony with the world around us. These understandings and experiences heighten our appreciation for the environment and help us become better caretakers of our natural resources. Colorado's Front Range is a stunning area.
Green hills rise out of prairies and grow into the towering peaks of the Rocky Mountains.
Grasslands and fields of wheat, corn, and alfalfa display an undulating palette of greens and golds. The rushing waters of the Cache la Poudre River wind through fields and forests as the river gushes forward to merge with the Platte. The natural setting that draws us to Northern Colorado adds value to our lives. Without such care, this natural world and the quality of life we value will disappear. The Colorado Environmental Learning Center invites you to step into this natural world to experience innovative teaching and learning techniques.
