Colorado Forest Insect and Disease Update
The state’s ongoing forest health concerns are due to a combination
of factors that impact forest health, including poor stand
conditions, long-term drought and warmer temperatures. In

outbreaks, potentially devastating wildfires and the dangerous
floods that often follow. These risks present both challenges and
opportunities
