The Colorado Cattlemen's Association has set up an online clearinghouse where ranchers suffering from blizzards can connect with hay suppliers.

Recent snowstorms in southeast Colorado left grazing land buried under several feet of snow.

Leonard Pruett, a Colorado State University extension agent in Lamar, says cattle have been unable to graze since the first heavy snowstorm about five weeks ago.

The site set up by the Colorado Cattlemen's Association on its Web site posts information on hay for sale or donation as well as links to other ranch and farm resources.
