Impressive operation!

So Colorado River is reduced its down flow into AZ, Kool dried up lake polw

Could this cause even more depletion of the Colorado River?

Thanks for Sharing this I love watching your progress on the project

They said the Titanic was unsinkable ! Don't own a house below a dam !!!

Happy i found your channel.Very interesting.Thanks.

Was this to increase flow in order to fill the new reservoirs that Colorado recently built?

Nice to see steps to revive colirado river Now i pray to next potus to give funding to plant a billion trees like oak maple beech mountain ash elm in colorado basin Because tree roits recharge ground water and enhance river flow

I ride my motorcycle up to pinewood quite often and see the progress you folks have been making.Very impressive.Cant wait until its open as a park with hiking trails and fishing.

Such a gorgeous project. I can only imagine when those trees really take root creating nice spots of shade during the summer, and fiery colors in the fall. The paths have such a natural and flowing design to them too. It all feels really intimately thought out. Wonderful stuff ~ 💙🧭🌊🌲

Yesssssss new video from Northern Water ~ <3 you guys are my favorite channel. Love the cinematography in them along with the interviews ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 Alright time to stop yapping and watch.

Looks good. I cannot believe how much you have gotten done this year. Cannot wait to go see it

Can I ride down the spillway?

Nice thank you

Great presentation, thank you

The views expressed here reflect the agricultural community's selfish, misguided, entitled beliefs. NISP would devastate and dewater the Poudre River corridor in Fort Collins, Windsor and Greely in order to support more unsustainable urban growth and perpetuate some claimed water rights. The water rights could be transported in the existing river for the benefit of all Colorado residents and stored downstream.

Amazing

Disgusting. Even as a resident of one of the places getting this water I’m against it. The Colorado river is done, this and tbe gross dam expansion will take so much water out of the upper Colorado that trout fishing and life for everyone on the western slope will decline. Very sad. We could be reducing water use instead of paying tons of money to destroy our state’s waterways. Screw these projects focus on reducing use and cap the size/growth of the front range cities by limiting their water.

A very nice professional and informative update on your project. Thanks for sharing!

Awesome video. Wish we could make the dam look more natural.

Thanks for sharing 👍

Totally agree with the wakeless boating rule. If you want to use motorized boats, make noise and pollute the water, do it somewhere else. Overnight camping is unnecessary! Day use is perfect and will lessen the chance of wild fires and wildlife interference. Northern Water is doing this properly for the future of the area and the quality of the water and the ecosystem. Thank you Northern Water‼️JerryH

HOW ARE THESE THIEVES ALLOWED TO DIVERT WATER AWAY FROM THE COLORADO RIVER? I LIVE IN ARIZONA AND NOBODY ASKED US!!!

Love these videos so much, definitely a big fan of you guys at Northern Water and the Chimney Hollow Project ❤❤❤

Our other son, Andrew, he does the same kind of job and we are very proud of him too.

That's our son. We're so proud.!!!!

Next time I am up in Colorado I definitely want to stop by. Are there any specific times of the year that you recommend stopping by? I am assuming it is before the fall chill sets in. Thank you again for all the wonderful videos you guys put up. I always get really excited whenever I see a new video posted on your channel. Much Love! ♥

Are you laser scanning construction progress? 3D laser scanning records every detail visible and allows comparison over time. It also records in 3D the location of everything that is eventually buried. To the accuracy of 2-3mm.

Very nice in depth on different parts that people usually do not see. I really liked this! You need to do the same thing upstream on the pump houses and tunnels. Some of the videos here very briefly go over some of these but its so quick. Even searching for details on the upstream is hit and miss. There is a lot of content here to go over starting from the Windy Gap Reservior, through the pump houses, and tunnels would be really interesting. Lots of opertunities for content creation and education. There is so much history here(a centrury?) .

Seems a conveyor belt would have been useful to haul material vs 1 truckload at a time.

Need to dig out the water side down to the bed rock.

How stupid not to allow over night and extended camping. What is this “wake less boating” all about? What are you “saving all the Chimney Lake water for,

Sorry, what is the purpose of the saddle dam? I don't understand it. Thanks.

Thanks for your project updates. It's going to be a great source of information to share with friends and family when I have access to the new reservoir. I hope I live long enough to catch my first fish from there.

Thanks for the update! It's so amazing watching the project in our "back yard".❤ Loveland Colorado 🤠🇺🇸

This reservoir isn’t that big. Diamond Valley holds 800,000 acre feet, and Waddell reservoir holds over 800,000 acre feet.

Great job. Cannot wait to see it

I like the video, but I would like to know more on progress of the Dam

Water thieves like those in California!! All take and no give back!

This state is ran by incompetent individuals that oversee all the fish and game in colorado. Just go to other states and you will see how worthless colorado parks and rec actually is! Nothing but a scam. Let's spend 10s of millions on 10 wolves and a couple fish species. What a joke!

Taking water unnaturally from one side of a mountain range to another won't have drastic consequences, will it?

The actual dam took a long time to start but popped up real quick at the end.

stealing west slope water

I am proud of the Montana based Barnard Construction for the work that they do.

A well constructed piece of infrastructure can serve a community for centuries. Everyone is counting on you to do it right.

Where's the permeable pond guy?

My yard bends all of that bar. It's cool to see these videos and the progress with all of our hard work. Dirty hands make clean money..

I was the construction site manager of Alpaslan 2 dam. Alpaslan 2 dam has an asphalt core. The length of the dam is 1000m and the height is 110m. We placed injection galleries inside the dam. Thus, we were able to monitor any leakage situation from within the gallery. The measurable leakage amount was measured as 2lt/sec for the asphalt core. The asphalt core method is really very economical and safe. We designed a special paving machine for the production of asphalt core. But I didn't see it in your project.

Nice project especially now that climate change is a threat. As much as possible all US must follow the same project as, even the rivers now sudenly went out of water, we heared of the news last year of the Mississipi river.

I want to learn about the experience of drilling and coring asphalt concrete
