Voices of the Fraser River – A Colorado valley fights for its river

Voices of the Fraser River presents six diverse voices describing the importance of keeping Colorado’s Fraser River flowing and healthy.  Denver wants this water and the residents of the Fraser Valley want Denver to hear their stories.  The Fraser River flows through Winter Park and is one of the main tributaries to the Upper Colorado River. Already 20 percent of the river is piped through the mountains to Denver, and now Denver Water wants 20 percent more.  Often these big water battles leave citizens feeling voiceless.  This video is a short love letter to a river for the water uses on the Front Range.
