CFI works to preserve and protect the natural integrity of Colorado's 14,000-foot peaks through active stewardship and public education.

🌲Agency Partner of the Year: Patrick Mercer!🌲

CFI is proud to honor Patrick Mercer, District Ranger for the Leadville Ranger District, as our 2024 Agency Partner of the Year! @u.s.forestservice

Patrick has been a trusted and reliable partner to CFI for many years, playing a pivotal role in securing a 30-year lease for our Twin Lakes base of field operations—a centrally located and critical hub that supports our work across Colorado’s 14ers.

In 2024, Patrick stepped up to help with the transition of the USFS 14er Program following the retirement of Loretta McEllhiney after 30+ years of service. Though such a significant change presented its challenges, Patrick’s guidance and collaborative approach have been instrumental in keeping the program moving forward and strengthening CFI’s ability to steward these cherished peaks.

Patrick’s commitment to preserving our public lands and supporting CFI’s mission has made a lasting impact. We are grateful for his partnership and leadership. Thank you, Patrick! 🌄

✨ Special Recognition Award: Anneliese Steel! ✨

We are beyond honored to present @annelieseonadventures with CFI’s 2024 Special Recognition Award for her unparalleled leadership and dedication to public lands advocacy.

With a background in government affairs and lobbying, Anneliese stepped up in 2023 when the first bill to amend the Colorado Recreational Use Statute was introduced. She united CFI, Access Fund, agricultural groups, and countless others to support the bill. When the first measure didn’t pass the Senate Judiciary Committee, Anneliese refused to back down.

Her vision and determination gave rise to the FixCRUS Coalition—a unified and strategic effort that ensured the bill’s success the second time around. Thanks to her tenacity, SB58 passed both the House and Senate committees with a remarkable 87-0 vote—an extraordinary and rare unanimous victory.

Anneliese’s efforts have set a new precedent for collaboration and advocacy across the state. Her visionary leadership has left a lasting impact, and we’re incredibly grateful for her passion and hard work. Thank you, Anneliese!

🎉 Partner Spotlight – Osprey Packs! 🎉 CFI

🎉 Volunteer Spotlight – Melinda Callender! 🎉

We’re thrilled to recognize Melinda Callender as CFI’s 2024 Adopt-a-Peak Volunteer of the Year! Last year, Melinda volunteered on 12 CFI stewardship projects (plus two projects with partner orgs) totaling more than 31 days in the field.

Melinda not only put in the hard work on the trails, but she also captured amazing photos from the field that have become an invaluable resource for CFI’s communications and grant reporting. And when it came time to strengthen one of our largest annual grant submissions, Melinda went above and beyond by writing a heartfelt letter of support.

When our team discussed this year’s volunteer awards, there was no doubt—Melinda was the clear choice for this honor.

Please join us in celebrating Melinda’s incredible contributions to trail stewardship! 🙌💚
