Byers Canyon Ranch BYERS CANYON RANCH HOT SULPHUR SPRINGS, COLORADO “Gold Medal Waters are the highest quality cold-water habitats and have the capability to produce many quality-size (14 inches or longer) trout. Gold Medal Waters are defined as any river or lake which is producing a standing stock of at least 60 pounds per acre, and at least 12 trout that are 14 inches or longer per acre on a sustained basis.” — Colorado Parks & Wildlife BYERS CANYON RANCH HOT SULPHUR SPRINGS, COLORADO 173 Acres Over 1,600 ft. on the Colorado Byers Canyon Ranch offers overs a rare opportunity to own more than 1,600 feet of the Colorado River and access to public lands, just outside the town of Hot Sulphur Springs, Colorado. The predominantly wooded 128 acres of the southern parcel allows for limited hunting along with magnificent views of the Continental Divide and the Gore Range. This parcel also offers multiple desirable building envelopes should the next owner decide to build their mountain dream home. In total, Byers Canyon Ranch includes 173 acres of mountain landscape, complete with over 1,600 feet of the Colorado River and expansive vistas of the Continental Divide and Gore Range Mountains. WILDLIFE & RECREATION Colorado River Property Rarely does a property come on the market allowing you to own such a large and pristine portion of the Colorado River. The sections of river directly above and below this ranch’s property have been designated Gold Medal Waters by Colorado Parks & Wildlife. Rainbow and Brown Trout are abundant on this ranch’s stretch of the Colorado River and are frequently seen sipping the most recent aquatic bug hatch. The ranch also has access to Colorado State land as well as Bureau of Land Management land less than one mile up County Road 20 toward the Parshall Divide. PROPERTY DETAILS The spacious cabin provides 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a large loft, a 2-car garage and a wood- burning fireplace with stone chimney. The well-maintained log cabin was remodeled in 2010. It features stainless steel appliances, natural finishes, wood floors, log beams, a wood ceiling and a deck overlooking the river. The cabin, which sits on top of the hillside, makes a great weekend retreat for family or guests, with its inspiring views of Byers Canyon, down to the river and the Continental Divide, toward the town of Granby. Improvements The 1406 square-foot, 2-bedroom cabin was remodeled in 2010. With its wood-burning fireplace and loft, it provides a carefree, year-round getaway within 1 hour of the world-renowned Winter Park Ski Area. The previous owners remained dedicated to this home’s maintenance, so the next owner can just relax and enjoy the respite it offers. LOCATION 20 minutes to Kremmling, Colorado Byers Canyon Ranch is located just outside the town of Hot Sulphur Springs, Colorado. The town of Hot Sulphur is the county seat of Grand County, though it is better known for the healing waters of its natural hot springs. Seven natural springs flow throughout the canyon along a portion of the town’s stretch of the Colorado River. Hot Sulphur Springs Resort & Spa has built 21 pools with water temperatures ranging from 95-112 degrees. The soothing waters are rich in calcium, magnesium, silica and potassium, just to name a few of the natural minerals you can unwind and soak in by either dropping in or owning an annual pass. In addition to hot springs, Hot Sulphur Springs offers spectacular hiking, mountain biking, rafting, birding, wildlife viewing and hunting, as well as fishing on Gold Medal Waters. Hot Sulphur Springs’ Town Park and Pioneer Park provide paths and a pedestrian bridge to stroll along the Colorado River. The parks offer barbeque grills and picnic tables, volleyball, horseshoe, and disc golf. Pioneer Village Museum’s 19th century schoolhouse showcases the history of the town, originally used for hunting by passing Ute and Arapahoe tribes, and then made popular by two Norwegians who created the first Winter Carnival, complete with a ski jump. This property is an angler’s dream, as well as the perfect retreat for family, or a weekend gathering of friends. The recently remodeled cabin stands ready for new owners to use and easily maintain, while the 128-acre parcel on the south side of hwy 40 offers several opportunities to build a luxury mountain home. Rarely do buyers find an opportunity to own over 1,600 feet of the Colorado River and enjoy Gold Medal fishing. The quant town of Hot Sulphur Springs provides everything from healing waters to historical parks. Byers Canyon Ranch affords the perfect Colorado outdoor lifestyle, along with a mountain cabin and flexible building options.

  • WATER USE Flow Regimes for In-Basin Water Users Are Reviewed
    Water Users and Recreation Appendix D WATER USE Flow regimes for in-basin water users are reviewed in this appendix. Water users include irrigators, municipalities and industry, and recreationalists. Flows include a wide range of parameters, affected by a wide range of uses and in some cases, such as recreation, may be somewhat subjective. The following sections include parameters, and approaches or methods to estimate these flow requirements. Much of the information presented herein was developed and presented in the Upper Colorado River Basin Study, Phase II, Final Report, May 29, (HRC 2003), herein referred to as the ‘UPCO Report’. WATER USE BY MUNICIPALITIES, INDUSTRY AND IRRIGATORS Water use as a parameter for this analysis and in terms of stream flow management focuses on two issues. The first is the physical limitations associated with stream flow that may affect the ability of a local water user to retrieve or use water. The second issue is the water user’s impact on flows in the stream relative to maintaining recommended flows. These issues are discussed in the following sections. Physical Limitations Irrigators: In general, most users are experiencing some difficulty in retrieving or using water, especially during the recent drought years. Many irrigators are constructing make-shift cobble dams to divert flows. In 2002 it was reported that the KB ditch was shut down voluntarily because the diversion was taking the majority of flows out of the Colorado River, leaving it in a dewatered condition. Pumping for irrigation is also limited by the available supply as well as by nuisance clogging from algae growth.

  • California Zephyr® Route Guide Journey
    ® CALIFORNIA ZEPHYR® ROUTE GUIDE JOURNEY THE CHICAGO • DENVER • SALT LAKE CITY • SAN FRANCISCO We hope you enjoy reading this guide and learning about points of interest along our route. It is written starting from the eastern terminus of the train in Chicago and proceeds to points west, ending in San Francisco. If you boarded in San ENJOY Francisco, just read the guide in reverse, remembering to look in the opposite direction referenced. AMTRAK® STATIONS are shown in all capital letters, as opposed to upper and lower case for towns and geographical areas through which the train travels but does not stop. The Amtrak® System Timetable or the California Zephyr® timetable folder should be consulted for actual station times. While all service presented in this guide was accurate at the time of publication, routes and services are subject to change. Please contact Amtrak at 1-800-USA-RAIL, visit Amtrak.com, or call your travel agent for the most current information. Between Chicago and the great cities of the west lie narrow canyons, towering peaks and breathtakingly beautiful mountain wilderness areas as you cross two great mountain ranges, the Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas. Traveling across this great swath of American West was a challenging journey until 1869 when the first transcontinental railroad was completed at Promontory Summit, Utah. Then, thousands of pioneers were able to easily go west in search of their fortunes, many to San Francisco after the discovery of gold nearby. Modern-day travelers know that same trip as one of the most beautiful train journeys in North America – and the most comfortable way to travel between these two great cities.

  • CR4 Stream Reach Summary
    Stream Reach Summary CR4 Stream Reach Summary Study Reach: CR4, Colorado River - Windy Gap (confluence of CR3 and F10 immediately upstream of Windy Gap) downstream to the confluence of Williams Fork at Parshall, Colorado. Reach Description: Approximate channel length: 14.25 miles, approximate channel slope 0.5%. Windy Gap Reservoir is located west of the town of Granby on the upstream end of CR4. This facility consists of a diversion dam on the Colorado River, a 445-acre-foot reservoir, a pumping plant, and a six- mile pipeline to Lake Granby. The Windy Gap Project can deliver an average of 48,000-acre feet of water annually at a volumetric rate of 600 cfs primarily between April and July. During the spring runoff, Fraser River water is pumped from Windy Gap Reservoir to Lake Granby, where it is stored for delivery through the Colorado-Big Thompson facilities to water users on the Front Range. Below Windy Gap, this reach of the Colorado River is designated a Gold Medal Fishery by CDOW. The river passes under U.S. Highway 40 twice in CR4 and flows through the town of Hot Sulphur Springs. From Windy Gap to Hot Sulphur Springs the Colorado River is relatively flat in slope, with a wide and unconfined channel planform. From Hot Sulphur Springs downstream through Byers Canyon, the river valley is confined with steep canyon walls and steeper channel slopes. Above and below Hot Sulphur Springs the valley is dominated by agricultural land uses with a relatively narrow cottonwood canopy along the river. Downstream of Byers Canyon is Lone Buck, a CDOW property and popular fishing and camping area.
