High flows and elevated river levels from snowmelt runoff will
continue for the upper Arkansas River, from Leadville, downstream to
Lake Pueblo, through late June. Cold, swift flowing water and
unstable stream banks pose a hazard for those near the river. Heed
all directives and orders from law enforcement and local emergency
management. Do not enter the river!
