It would be interesting to hear more from the speaker in this movie of how the Blue Mesa Dam really came to be. I have heard and read in old newspapers (can't remember exact dates) that the ranchers and residents of the area weren't very happy nor enthusiastic to be relieved of their property for the reservoir project. Basically imminent domain. Russ, do you have any more from the speaker in your video?

Thank you for sharing this, it is really great to see these operations and how they went.
