You didn't mention where the park was in Colorado, but if it was Rocky Mountain National Park they are probably Greenback Cutthroats and they are protected in the park because they are the last pure strain of that particular cutthroat that hasn't hybridized with the rainbow. They travel up these small little rivulets to spawn all dressed up in their finest colors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
