On this week's podcast, there's a lot of outdoor recreation politics for Colorado.
First, Bob and co-host Kevin discuss the "Keep Colorado Wild Pass" bill that was recently introduced in the state senate. You can read the bill language here: https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/sb21-249 and read the FAQ here: https://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Financial-Sustainability/Keep_Colorado_Wild_Pass_FAQ.pdf
Then, they discuss a new program allowing for bulk purchasing of yearly state park passes at discounted rates.
And finally, the "Strengthening Backcountry Search and Rescue" bill: https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/sb21-245
