Ridgway Reservoir in Colorado was created in the 1980s as part of the Dallas Creek Project. It is located in the Uncompahgre River Valley and is fed by the Uncompahgre River and Dallas Creek. The reservoir has a capacity of 258,000 acre-feet and provides water for agriculture, as well as domestic and municipal use. Ridgway Reservoir also serves as a popular recreational destination for fishing, camping, boating, and hiking. The hydrology of the area is influenced by snowpack from the nearby San Juan Mountains, and surface flows from Dallas Creek and the Uncompahgre River. The reservoir is managed by the Bureau of Reclamation and the Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife to ensure both water management and recreation needs are met.
