Poudre Headwaters Native Trout Restoration

Trout Unlimited is proud to be a partner with the US Forest Service, Rocky Mountain National Park, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and Colorado State University in launching Colorado’s largest-ever restoration effort for native trout. Together, the partners plan to restore Greenback cutthroat trout to nearly 40 miles of connected streams and multiple lakes in the Cache la Poudre headwaters (including Long Draw Reservoir) to create a stronghold for Colorado’s state fish. Another key partner, the Water Supply and Storage Company (operators of Long Draw Reservoir), has provided $1.25 million toward the project as part of a mitigation agreement for its reservoir easement.
