 Silverthorne is hoping to build a whitewater park just below Dillon Reservoir, according to the Denver Post [July 21, 2005, "Silverthorne floats kayak park, troubles Denver Water"]. From the article, "A proposal to build a kayak park just below the Dillon Reservoir was met Wednesday with concern over the prospect that it could affect Denver's future water supply. In seeking a new water right, Silverthorne's proposal would ensure minimum stream flows through the Blue River on summer days and peak flows on holiday weekends, but it would kick in only when there is enough water to make boating worthwhile. Using water rights for whitewater parks has become an increasingly contentious issue in the state, Silverthorne water attorney David Robbins told the Colorado Water Conservation Board, meeting in Frisco."
