Sometimes it is necessary to close some or all of the ditch to prevent floods, manage debris flows or do general maintenance. Here is a handy key to the terms we will use to describe the status of the ditch:
1. UPPER DITCH = the stretch from the main Animas River diversion down to Hermosa Creek
2. MIDDLE DITCH = the stretch from the Hermosa Creek to Waterfall Ranch
3. LOWER DITCH = the stretch from Waterfall Ranch to the south end of the Ditch.

A REMINDER TO ALL: Dumping anything into the ditch is not permitted and is subject to a $400 fine to recoup the costs of clearing.
As always, there may be times of temporary closure. These may come without warning. Please be certain you have low pressure shutoff devices on your pumps to avoid damage.
