<br />The North Slope watershed is located on the north slope of Pikes Peak,
<br />west of Colorado Springs (fig. 9). Native water originating in the watershed~
<br />is collected in Crystal, South Catamount, or North Catamount Reservoirs, which
<br />have a combined capacity of l8,l20 acre-feet. Flow from the 30-inch
<br />Montgomery pipeline can be added to the storage in North Catamount and South
<br />Catamount Reservoirs. The flow in Montgomery pipeline usually originates in
<br />the Blue River system (Colorado River basin); however~ the capability exists,
<br />at the divide pumping station, to obtain water from the Fryingpan-Arkansas,
<br />Twin Lakes, or Homestake Projects. Storage of imported water usually is
<br />limited to North Catamount and Crystal Reservoirs, Runoff from South
<br />Catamount Creek usually is sufficient to maintain South Catamount Reservoir.
