Hidden Spring, located in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, is a private water resource that serves multiple purposes including irrigation and recreation. Built in 1966, this earth dam stands at a height of 10 feet and spans 250 feet, with a storage capacity of 74 acre-feet. Situated on Horse Creek, Hidden Spring is regulated and inspected by the Colorado Division of Water Resources to ensure its safety and compliance with state regulations.
Despite its low hazard potential, Hidden Spring is deemed to have a high risk level due to its outdated inspection date of August 1979. The dam's condition assessment is currently not rated, highlighting the need for updated risk management measures and emergency action plans. With its scenic location and important role in water supply and leisure activities, Hidden Spring serves as a vital resource for the community and a focal point for climate and water resource enthusiasts interested in the sustainability and safety of water infrastructure.
