Cattails, Reservoir, Dam

These cattails are nearing the end of their cycle and will soon be replaced by green shoots, that grow incredibly fast. By the end of June, you won't be able to see through to Cherry Creek Reservoir and Cherry Creek Dam. The dam is an important flood control dam that prevents deadly flooding in downtown Denver. With all the deep snow in the mountains this year, we may need the dam to perform it's function, once again.
