• Study finds manmade whitewater parks in Colorado may inhibit fish migration (denverpost.com) — Researchers have found that manmade whitewater parks, including one on the Colorado River near Glenwood Springs, may make it harder for fish to move upstream. The study from Colorado Parks and Wildlife says the fast, constricted water that creates play waves for kayakers can conflict with fish needs for slower, deeper flows, raising questions about how recreation and river health can better coexist statewide.
