Re-construction and new construction of a fence to create an effective barrier to livestock movement due to the past bark beetle and timber sale activity. Cochetopa C&H Allotment in Saguache County on the Gunnison RD SCOPE OF CONTRACT: This project will construct two sections of fence (~3.968 ft new construction and ~5,886 ft reconstruction) along the Cochetopa and Los Pinos Cattle and Horse grazing allotment boundaries located in Saguache County, Colorado. The purpose is to close existing gaps from spruce beetle and timber sale activity to ensure proper grazing management can be accomplished by preventing cattle movement off their permitted allotment. Project Location & Description: The project area is located near the area of Los Pinos pass, which is south of Gunnison, Colorado. From Gunnison, travel east on Hwy-50 for 8.2 miles to the intersection of SH-114 and turn south (right). Continue on SH-114 for 20 miles and turn west (right) onto County Road NN-14. In 3.4 miles, turn right onto KK-14. In 18 miles, turn left onto County Road 8-EE (FSR 790). In 3.7 miles there will be a fence line with a cattleguard. The upslope fence (right) is the fence to be reconstructed. 1.3 miles further (east) is parking for the new fence construction (~260 yards north is the proposed west ending point). -
