Speaker Series: Human Impact on the Headwaters
Reservations Requested | All Ages Welcome | $5 Suggested Donation
Listen, discuss, and learn as we continue our series addressing issues of water conservation and river preservation to raise awareness among the community, water ecology experts, and decision makers.
Speaker: Kirk Klanke, President of the Colorado River Headwaters Chapter of Trout Unlimited
This talk will explore the start of the Fraser River on top of Berthoud Pass. It is far above any human influence and because of this we can see what a pristine stream looks like. We will discuss the impacts that humans have as the river flows downstream and what these impacts mean to the river. We will follow the effects of the water down the Colorado River. Along the way we will discuss what actions have been taken to mitigate these negative impacts as well as what actions we can take.
