Fire Mountain Lands <br /> <br />In lCJYl. when there seems to have been plenty of water in Norta <br />Fork of Gunnison River. the records of the water commissioner indicate <br />that Fire Mountain Cansl diverted 24.790 s.ore-f'eet. It has not approach- <br />ed that quantity since. In 1938 and 1939 the quantity supplied by Fire <br />Mountain Oanal to lands which also have Leroux Creek rights was: <br /> <br />-5- <br />
