Poudre River.
Grand River Ditch: diverts water from the headwaters of the Colorado River on the west slope
of the Never Summer Mountains in the Kawuneeche Valley in Rocky Mountain National Park. (The Park
was expanded and the ditch easement was effectively annexed into the Park 40 years after construction
and operations began.) The water diverted is delivered into La Poudre Pass Creek, through Long Draw
Reservoir, then into the Big South Fork of the Cache la Poudre.
Skyline Ditch: diverts water from the headwaters of the West Fork of the Laramie River directly
into Chambers Reservoir, then into Joe Wright Creek and the Cache la Poudre River.

Poudre River at Highway 14 at a point 1.9 miles west or uphill from the CDOT maintenance facility and
5.4 miles east or downhill from its intersection with CR103 (the Glendevey or Laramie River Road). That

Ted's Place.

and controlling operator of the Tunnel Water Company. The Rawah Ditch and the Laramie-Poudre
Tunnel are assets of the Tunnel Water Company.
Jackson Ditch: The Company is the controlling operator and a minority stockholder of the Jackson Ditch
Company. The Company receives its prorate share, based on its ownership of 6.25 of 24 total shares, of
Jackson Ditch water as delivered to Long Pond Reservoir. That water is utilized in the Company's system
via exchange from Douglass or Cobb Reservoir (Windsor Res. and Canal Co.) On average, the Company's
annual share of Jackson Ditch water is about 1,500 acre-feet.
