📰 News we're reading

• Facing 'devastatingly low' reservoir levels, Colorado River communities get creative (cpr.org) — Kremmling is facing a serious water crunch this summer, with town reservoirs dropping to “devastatingly low” levels and strict Level Three water restrictions cutting daily use by about 45%. Local officials, nearby subdivisions like Blue Valley Acres, state water managers, and even a neighboring rancher have scrambled together emergency measures and sacrifices to keep taps running while a new $20 million water plant and backup river intake come online.
   

• Colorado Parks and Wildlife kills another wolf (steamboatradio.com) — Colorado wildlife officials have just killed another wolf after repeated calf depredations in Grand and Jackson counties, continuing an intense statewide debate over wolf management. For Kremmling-area residents, this follows earlier wolf meetings held in town and a confirmed sighting east of Kremmling, underscoring that local ranchers and residents remain on the front lines of these decisions.
