About Us

Colorado Fourteeners Initiative was formed in 1994 as a partnership of nonprofit organizations, concerned individuals, and public agencies. Our mission is to preserve and protect the natural integrity of Colorado’s Fourteeners after a 1993 study noted significant environmental impacts due to rapidly expanding recreational use.

To commemorate CFI's 30th Anniversary this year, we are partnering with 14er Brewing Company to create a limited-release craft beer. The brew will release at a special event in mid-July and then be canned and available for sale at 14er Brewing's Beer Garden in Denver. We are excited to announce a graphic design competition to create the official beer can label. Follow the link below to learn more about the competition guidelines and download the template to get started. You do not need to be a professional graphic designer to submit an entry.
