Lake Gloria, also known as Pollard Reservoir, is a private water body located in Rio Blanco, Colorado. Managed by the state regulatory agency DWR, this earth dam structure was completed in 1987 and serves primarily as a Fish and Wildlife Pond for recreational activities. With a dam height of 23 feet and a storage capacity of 40 acre-feet, the reservoir covers a surface area of 4 acres and is fed by Papoose Creek.
Despite its relatively low hazard potential and fair condition assessment, Lake Gloria presents a moderate risk level, with a maximum discharge capacity of 176 cubic feet per second and an uncontrolled spillway width of 13 feet. Regular inspections, conducted every 6 years, ensure the safety and integrity of the structure. While the reservoir does not have associated locks or outlet gates, it remains a popular destination for fishing and wildlife enthusiasts, providing a serene environment for outdoor recreation in the picturesque Colorado landscape.
