High in the Colorado Rockies, there is an unassuming but extraordinary place that is quietly transforming field science as we know it. For decades, scientists the world over have converged here to study the species who call its diverse habitats home.
RMBL is a high elevation station whose principle purpose is to provide quality research for biologists and biology students of all disciplines who can benefit professionally and intellectually from studying at this location. An important further purpose of RMBL is to promote the understanding and protection of the high-altitude ecosystems of Colorado and the watershed of the Gunnison River through the professional activity of its members.
