Description
The Granby reservoir is known as Lake Granby, the largest reservoir component of the Colorado-Big Thompson Project, which diverts water from the west slope of Colorado to populated areas, including Denver, on the east slope. In addition to the waters of the Colorado, water from Willow Creek just below the dam is pumped up 175 feet (53 m) to Lake Granby. Water from Lake Granby is pumped 125 feet (38 m) higher by the Granby Pumping Plant to the Granby Pump Canal, which extents 1.8 miles (2.9 km) to Shadow Mountain Lake, from which water is diverted through the Alva B. Adams Tunnel to the East Slope.
This dam site does not generate any power directly; power is generated at other locations in the Colorado-Big Thompson Project

Thanks Bette. Any time you can get away is nice. I stood in this spot for like an hour waiting for the sunset and for other campers to get out of the way. A small price to pay.
