Slinde, also known as Bohn's Lake or Climax Reservoir, is a privately owned water resource in Boulder, Colorado, primarily used for irrigation purposes. Constructed in 1950 by USDA NRCS, this earth dam structure stands at a height of 25 feet and has a maximum storage capacity of 130 acre-feet. With a low hazard potential and satisfactory condition assessment, Slinde serves as a vital water source in the region, providing water for irrigation, fire protection, stock, and small fish ponds.

Situated along Dry Creek-TR, Slinde is regulated by the Colorado Department of Water Resources, with state oversight for permitting, inspection, and enforcement. The reservoir spans 12 acres with a drainage area of 0, featuring an uncontrolled spillway type and a moderate risk assessment rating of 3. Despite its age, Slinde remains a reliable water source with its last inspection conducted in 2013, meeting guidelines for risk management and emergency preparedness.

Managed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, Slinde is a crucial component of the local water infrastructure in Longmont, contributing to the sustainable use of water resources in the region. With its strategic location and modern design features, Slinde continues to play a significant role in supporting agricultural activities and ensuring water security for the community, while maintaining a strong focus on environmental conservation and risk mitigation.
