Photo: Larimer County Natural Resources CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION For more than 70 years, Larimer County in northern Colorado has served as a regional provider of natural resource-based recreation. In the early 1950s four reservoirs were built, Horsetooth Reservoir, Carter Lake, Pinewood Reservoir, and Flatiron Reservoir, as part of the Colorado-Big Thompson (C-BT Project). Larimer County under an agreement with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) has managed recreation at these sites since 1954. Approximately one million people visit the reservoirs every year, a number expected to grow faster than population growth. These visitors bring tourism and economic opportunities to businesses throughout the county along with sales tax revenues. The beauty and naturalness of the reservoirs enhance an already enviable sense of place, attract regional employers, and support high property values. These benefits do not come by chance but through careful stewardship, deliberate partnerships, and thoughtful planning. This master plan takes a county-wide look at current and future issues, needs, and opportunities facing Larimer County. It is the result of a joint planning process that focuses on the four Reclamation reservoirs - the original core of the County’s recreation program. Given the important role the four reservoirs play in meeting the needs of Larimer County residents as well as other visitors to the area, the four reservoirs receive a substantial degree of emphasis in this master plan. Some of the master plan content is derived from the Resource Management Plan and Environmental Assessment (RMP/EA)

  • Fishing Report
    COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Fishing ReportFishing Regulations Friday March 23rd, 2018 Review News and Information CPW accepts check for $29 million grant from U.S. Department of the Interior Colorado Parks and Wildlife Director Bob Broscheid on Tuesday, March 20, accepted a check for $29 million from the U.S. Department of Interior, declaring the funding “critical to CPW’s efforts for wildlife conservation, research, habitat preservation” as well as for supporting hunting and fishing programs. Invasive mussels knocking on Colorado's door prompts Highline Lake to revise boat ramp rules Beginning April 1, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will lock the boat ramp each evening at Highline Lake State Park, or when Aquatic Nuisance Species inspectors are not available. The new rule is in response to the growing threat posed to Colorado's water by the few boaters suspected of illegally launching their watercraft without the required aquatic nuisance species inspection. Anglers can provide input at two CPW 'State of the Fish" meetings in Summit, Grand counties In continuing efforts to engage the public in constructive conversations, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will hold two 'State of the Fish' gatherings in Summit and Grand County later this month. Agency biologists and managers will be available to answer questions about the current status of local fisheries, and future management plans. Go fish! 2018 fishing licenses are available now, valid beginning April 1 Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers that it's time to get ready for another season of fishing. Coloradans and non-resident visitors can purchase a 2018 annual fishing license now either online, at your local CPW office or at any of our hundreds of authorized sales agents statewide.

  • Chatfield Stables
    CHATFIELD STABLES The Chatfield Stables is located on the old ranch land in what is now part of Chatfield State Park. It offers a timeless experience for leisurely horseback exploration of the nearby trails and streams. The Stables are open for business all year round. The Stables provide rental horses for trail rides and boarding facilities that are open to the public. Tack sheds and hitch rails are also provided, along with a covered pavilion for group picnics. Natural surface equestrian trails are accessed from the stables. The staff offers wrangler-guided horseback riding throughout the Park. Bob Hantschel, owner of the Stables, says, “Enjoy a true Colorado trail ride at Chatfield Stables. Our scenic trails are sure to delight any rider. Lots of trails in thousands of acres. With the Platte River running through, we have water features and views of the foothills along the many miles of prairie and forest trails.” Bob also commented that “Our horses are great for all experience levels. We have raised many of them since they were little foals; they love their job and do it well. We have approximately 50 horses, each one has a name and special personality. Feel free to visit our horses, there is always someone near the fence waiting to be pet. Or, to learn more about the horses (and all of the services), visit our website www.chatfieldstables.com.” Riding the trails within Chatfield State Park on a horse is likely the mode of transportation most in keeping with the long-term history of the land, the streams, and the local lifestyle.

  • All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION and KEY
    All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2020. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e. a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007 will be coded “07”. The next two characters identify the type of grant. In the case of grants that are awarded based on specific application due dates, the grant round in which the project was funded will be paired with either a letter or number.
