About Fraser River
Grand County's sleeper fishery. The Fraser runs along US-40 from Winter Park to Granby, where it joins the Colorado River. Wild brown and rainbow trout in surprisingly technical pocket water. Note: flows are significantly influenced by the Moffat Tunnel transmountain diversion (Denver Water) and Windy Gap operations — always check the gauge, as reported CFS may not reflect what you see on the water.
