Lisa Bennett is an entrepreneur based in Colorado's Western Slope region, best known as the owner of Wild Skies, a luxury cabin rental business located in the Flat Tops Wilderness near Craig, Colorado. Along with her husband Chip Bennett, she developed the Wild Skies property after the original cabin was destroyed by lightning in 2012. The rebuilt 3,500-square-foot river-adjacent cabin has become a premier high-country accommodation offering cross-country skiing and backcountry access.
Bennett is an active voice on issues affecting Western Slope communities and rural Colorado. She has extensively researched topics including wildlife reintroduction policies, election integrity concerns, dark money networks like Arabella Advisors and the Tides Foundation, and the impacts of federal policy on ranchers and rural communities.
As a business owner in northwest Colorado, Bennett has firsthand experience with the economic challenges facing rural communities from environmental regulations, predator reintroduction, and energy policy changes. She has spoken about the impacts of wolf reintroduction on ranchers and the mountain lion hunting restrictions pushed by animal rights organizations.
Bennett has appeared over 20 times on the Kim Monson Show since 2020, discussing topics ranging from the gray wolf ballot measure and rural economic pressures to election software security, NGO influence on policy, and constitutional reforms. Her daughter Nicole Bennett has also appeared on the show discussing ballot initiatives.
In 2023-2024, Bennett was involved in efforts to advance Constitutional Initiative 124 in Montana, which would have transferred attorney licensing authority from the Supreme Court to the legislature. The initiative did not succeed.
