Perhaps They Should Call It The Devil's 'Green' Thumb Ranch
On our never ending hunt for the greenest hotels of 'em all, we've been checking out a list of the Top 10 green hotels put out by Travel + Leisure. Along with a bunch of "middle of nowhere in the southern hemisphere" eco-hotels (where we suspect the no electricity thing is more a matter of economics than environment), there were a few interesting hotels on the list, including the Devil's Thumb Ranch in Colorado.
The Devil's Thumb consists of 16 timber cabins plus a lodge that's due to open this winter, all placed on a 5,000 acre ranch. One eco-friendly side of the ranch is that just one per cent of the area has been developed, and the rest is a sanctuary for local wildlife to live happily ever after, including elk, moose, bears and beavers.
