Archive: https://archive.today/R4hVT From the post: >>Denver Water will empty Antero Reservoir this summer, moving the water downstream to minimize water lost to evaporation during a record-setting drought. The utility — which serves 1.5 million people across the Denver metro — on Monday announced its plans to drain the Park County reservoir, located on the Middle Fork of the South Platte River south of Fairplay. Recreation at the reservoir will close through the end of the year, including camping. Denver Water officials did not give an exact date when the draining would begin or when recreational access would close.
