Scotland Peak, also known as January, is a private earth dam located in Delta, Colorado, with a primary purpose of irrigation. Completed in 1949, this dam stands at a height of 17 feet and has a storage capacity of 140 acre-feet. Despite its low hazard potential and fair condition assessment, Scotland Peak poses a high risk due to its proximity to Ward Creek-TR and its maximum discharge capacity of 415 cubic feet per second.

Owned and regulated by private entities, the dam is subject to state jurisdiction and permitting, inspection, and enforcement by the Colorado Division of Water Resources. The dam lacks a spillway but has outlet gates consisting of a slide (sluice gate) and uncontrolled options. With a drainage area of 0 and a surface area of 24 acres, Scotland Peak serves as a crucial water resource for the surrounding area, highlighting the intersection of water management and climate resilience in Colorado's diverse landscape.
