Aspen Acres Fire Exposes Insurance Gaps | Colorado Rockies News

The Aspen Acres fire, Colorado’s seventh-largest wildfire, destroyed over 300 homes and exposed a devastating gap in insurance access—especially for older, historic properties like 88-year-old Bob Griggs’ 1876 stagecoach inn. While new state laws after the Marshall fire aimed to help, the FAIR Plan offers limited relief. Climate change fuels these disasters, and with federal aid uncertain and insurers pulling back, homeowners face an uphill battle to rebuild. A state moratorium on policy cancellations may be on the way, but for many, the future feels unshakable. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
