Vigil for USFS trees offers closure for some and disappointment for others

The U.S. Forest Service has fenced off the Aspen/Sopris Ranger District property in downtown Carbondale in preparation for demolition of the 1930s-era buildings and likely many surrounding trees. But, before the fence went up, locals gathered for a vigil on First Friday. KDNK’s Amy Hadden Marsh has this report.

Amy Hadden Marsh’s reporting goes back to 1990 and includes magazine, radio, newspaper and online work. She has previously served as reporter and news director for KDNK Community Radio, earning Edward R. Murrow and Colorado Broadcasters Association awards for her work. She also writes for Aspen Journalism and received a Society of Professional Journalists’ Top of the Rockies award in 2023 for a story on the Uinta Basin Railway. Her photography has also won awards. She holds a Masters in Investigative Journalism from Regis University.
