Summary edit

Description
English: I took photo with Canon camera in Grand Lake, CO.
  • Comment added by Brad Wagoner.
The lake in this picture is the neighboring Shadow Mountain Lake, actually a reservoir. Shadow Mountain is attached to Grand Lake by a boatable canal just outside the left side of the frame. This reservoir was created as part of the Colorado-Big Thompson Project to help maintain a steady water elevation in Grand Lake. Shadow Mountain Dam releases water to the Colorado River, which flows into "Lake Granby"," the 3rd largest body of water in Colorado. Lake Granby is also part of the C-BT project and, in turn, pumps snow melt run-off it collects from the Colorado River headwaters up to Shadow Mountain, through the canal and Grand Lake to the Alva B. Adams Tunnel which diverts the water to Colorado's northern Front Range. The large building in the center of the frame is Grand Lake Elementary.
