The altitude at which the Canal begins, and the S. Platte River is diverted, is incorrect. The correct altitude is 5,542 feet or 1689 meters. See ftp://dwrftp.state.co.us/cdss/swm/tm/SPDSSTask5_DenverWater_20070219.pdf, page 25 of 40. Oyate (talk) 04:50, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
I agree, and when you use that figure, you come up with a total elevation drop of 132 feet, which lines up perfectly with the other information on this page (66 miles long, elevation drop of 2 feet per mile). I've changed the page accordingly. Niobrara (talk) 20:20, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
