Denver Republicans quotes James Malling of Steamboat Springs on Uintah basin riches and irrigation. He cites 26,000 settlers and 250,000 irrigable acres, with government and private efforts, railroads planned, and the Moffat line seen as key to Denver’s growth and a 50,000 population surge if linked first.
