Teller Historic and Environmental Coalition

Preservation through Collaboration

             T.H.E. Coalition is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization formed in 2000 to encourage cooperation and collaboration throughout the community to preserve and protect the natural environment, historic landmarks and cultural heritage in and around Teller County, Colorado. Our members include nonprofit organizations, government agencies, area businesses and concerned citizens, all working together in support of common goals.

             Teller County is located in almost the center of Colorado, 20 miles west of Colorado Springs. Its mountainous terrain ranges in elevation from 8,000 to 14,000 feet and includes the western slope of Pikes Peak. Highway 24, the major east-west thoroughfare, was once a Ute Indian trail, becoming a wagon road during the gold rush of the 1860s, and then the railroad bed for the Colorado Midland Railroad in 1887. Today, Teller County faces the very real challenges brought about by rapid growth and demands on limited water, financial and infrastructure resources. For this reason, T.H.E. Coalition is committed to  …  preservation of the historic, cultural, environmental, recreational, and scenic resources in and around Teller County, and to broaden public understanding regarding the significance of those resources.
