i'd think the colorado and rio grande would feed into it. the all-american cbrown town is 150-700 feet wide and 7-50 feet deep, and has steep sides making it hard to get out. it's 80 miles long and took only 2 years to rebuild (2007-2009) when they decided to make it more water-tight. according to this the lining project only cost $170,390,000 but who knows i'm out my ass right now. the environmental repercussions are probably pretty bad. |
