Our Shared Currents: Where the San Juan & Rio Grande Meet

Our Shared Currents is a 3-part series exploring human relationships along Southwest Colorado’s waterways. These stories of unexpected commonalities go beyond traditional boundaries and competing demands. In this first episode, we learn how water systems and local wildlife connect the Rio Grande and Colorado River basins. The San Juan-Chama Project, a major transmountain diversion originating in the South San Juans and funneling water underneath the Continental Divide, is a critical lifeline for communities in New Mexico. People and nature are uniquely bound together across the Divide by these shared waters.
