Animas River at Durango and Silverton railroad crossing just north of confluence with Lime Creek
The Animas River Flowing from high up in the San Juan Mountains the Animas River has become legendary for its scenic beauty, raging white water and world class fishing.
Animas River (on-EE-moss) (Río de las Ánimas, in Spanish) is a 126-mile-long (203 km) river in the western United States, a tributary of the San Juan River, part of the Colorado River System.
The Animas-La Plata Water Project was completed in 2015. The project pumps water over a low pass to fill a reservoir, Lake Nighthorse, in Ridges Basin to satisfy Southern Ute tribal water rights claims associated with the Colorado Ute Settlement Act amendments of 2000.
