Paonia Reservoir serves as a central hub for water management within the high-elevation reach of the North Fork Gunnison River. This portion of the Gunnison National Forest is defined by a complex network of agricultural irrigation and high-country travel routes, including the Elkhorn Stomp Ditch and the Fillmore Ditch. These systems imply a legacy of water rights and ranching infrastructure necessary for sustaining the lower valleys.
