Cox Family Ranch owner faces tough choices after Aspen Acres Fire scorches hundreds of acres of property
The Aspen Acres Fire burned 280 acres of Mike Cox's Cox Family Ranch in Pueblo County, destroying grazing land and leaving his 24 cattle without pasture. Cox rescued his herd as the fire approached but now faces a potential forced sale due to insufficient hay and a $40,000 cost to feed them for a year.
