A plan for conserving lynx habitat in the southern Rockies could affect a proposed expansion of the Breckenridge ski area.

The Forest Service released a plan last year to manage lynx habitat in national forests in Colorado and southern Wyoming. Ski resort officials hope the Forest Service will complete a draft environmental study on the project this summer...adn.com
