Talk:Grand Lake (Colorado)

Untitled

The current article for Grand Lake describes the Colorado/Big Thompson project as "the first of many diversions of water from the Colorado River Basin between Colorado and the Gulf of California." The article must mean first in terms for furthest upstream, since many other diversions came earlier in terms of date of construction. The Grand Ditch, which diverts water from the upper Colorado River drainage across the Continental divide at Poudre Pass, is both further upstream and was constructed earlier than the Colorado/Big Thompson project.

I got that image of what you say is Granby Reservoir from [1], so they (or the photographer) must have gotten it wrong. Good thing you were able to recognize it. howcheng {chat} 06:33, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I figured that happened and looked over at byways and confirmed it. No worries. The picture on this page WAS on the Grand Lake, Colorado (the town) page. When I reused it here, I decided we needed a town photo there. Byways proved useful for that! Note: I spotted the Lake Granby in the first scene (the ad filming scene, if you've seen it) of John Sayles' Silver City. John (Jwy) 17:59, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

I removed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Grand_Lake,_Colorado.jpg 'cause it was also of Granby Reservoir and Shadow Mountain Lake. Cool aerial photo, though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.65.1.208 (talk) 19:57, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Is the water in Grand Lake drinkable???

The article doesn't say, but is the lake water drinkable??? Or does it have to be boiled, etc? Thanks to anybody who knows.109.154.20.139 (talk) 10:21, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
