Colorado's southwesternmost city has perpetually verged on all that is desirable in the American Southwest for tourism, recreation, and highdesert living. Cortez is surrounded by scenic mountains and redrock canyons, Anasazi archaeological sites and a varied Native American heritage, and a sunny climate. Yet for centuries, rugged landscapes and lack of water made communication, transportation, and commerce difficult. Residents developed a fierce selfreliance. Area farmers received a boost when the Dolores River was diverted in 1889 by the nearly unimaginable manandmulehewn Great Cut and a 5,400footlong irrigation tunnel. Cortez's hardscrabble growth found additional relief in the 1950s due to the Four Corners gas and oil boom. Congressman Wayne Aspinall helped establish the Dolores Water Conservancy District in 1961, construction of McPhee Dam on the Dolores River began in 1978, and finally in 1986, Montezuma Valley obtained a reliable water supply. Lake McPhee provides water for farms, families, and enterprises and adds to local beauty and recreation.
