The venerable High Country News -- one of the leaders in North American rural lands reporting for a couple decades now -- has a new website, designed by our friends at ONE Northwest, and it pretty much rocks. Go there and you'll learn some things about the big open.

Awww, shucks. Thanks, Alex! In the interest of full disclosure, though, it was HCN webdude Ryan Foster who did the actual design work (and a lot of the visual design implemention). We just did the less-sexy (but more fun!) content management plumbing, along with our amazing neighbors at the Web Collective.

But one thing I cannot deny: High Country News' coverage of Western environmental issues pretty much rocks. :-)

Please note that comments will remain open for only 14 days after the article is posted. While previous comments will remain visible, attempts to post new comments after this period will fail. This helps stop comment spam, so your forebearance is appreciated.

The Worldchanging comments are meant to be used for further exploration and evaluation of the ideas covered in our posts. Please note that, while constructive disagreement is fine, insults and abuse are not, and will result in the comment being deleted and a likely ban from commenting. We will also delete at will and without warning comments we believe are designed to disrupt a conversation rather than contribute to it. In short, we'll kill troll posts.

Finally, please note that comments which simply repost copyrighted works or commercial messages will be summarily deleted.
