		If, on the other hand, the river were not running in the area south of the north channel, it would not make sense for Hubbs to convey such an area of property through a presumption that their conveyance includes the property they own to the center of a river; the river was not running there.
		The center of the river for the purposes of the disputed boundary is the center of the main channel of the river as it existed in February 1943.
		As we conclude that the property boundary is the middle of the north channel of the river, we remand to the district court to determine the area between the northernmost boundary of the north channel and the middle of the channel as it existed in February 1943, as that area belongs to the City.

		The Animas is a rather large river by southwest Colorado standards, but unlike other large rivers which are sometimes not as scenic, the Animas is gorgeous.
		The Animas River is large by southwest Colorado standards (100 feetwide in some places) and there is no dam interrupting its flow from Silverton to Farmington, New Mexico.

		The river is then best fished from a raft after it starts to clear, allowing you to work the banks of the river with streamer patterns.
		This river is a freestone and therefore is susceptible to big temperature changes as well as rain and winter run off or drought.
		It is a river that can be a little better suited to a intermediate angler, however it can be a very good river for a person wanting to really learn a lot about trout fishing at his or her beginning stage.

	Fly Fishing Colorado's Animas River
		Located in southwest Colorado, the Animas River is a beautiful freestone fishery well populated with rainbows and browns and a few cutthroat and brook trout.
		North of Silverton the Animas is a small stream which gathers volume from several streams as it approaches Hermosa.
		The Animas is known for being a "water trap" since it is surrounded by several huge mountains and is encased for much of its journey in a gorge.

	Friends of the Animas River
		Friends of the Animas River is pushing for ordinances that would only approve development predicated on real water, not just water rights on paper.
		As this as an example of what could easily occur in the Animas River watershed, FOAR proposes that no development, already approved or otherwise, get consideration for ground breaking unless there is proof that, over the long term, and in relationship with other water uses and plans, there is constant real water.
		Friends of the Animas River, as a driving force of the Coalition to Save Perins Peak, went on a large scale education campaign to let people know the importance of our local wildlife sanctuary and generated a great deal of public support against a trail or a land swap.

	INTEGRATED RESULTS FROM THE ANIMAS RIVER WATERSHED PROJECT, SOUTHWESTERN COLORADO (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Studies of the effect of historical mining on the water chemistry of the Animas River watershed in southwestern Colorado indicate that premining metal concentrations in streambed sediment exceeded crustal abundance, were indicative of exposed mineralization in the watershed, and limited aquatic habitat in some reaches prior to mining.
		The upper Animas River upstream from the confluence with Cement Creek (A-68) to Minnie Gulch supports relatively diverse and abundant stream biological communities, including brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis).
		Stream segments and measured inflows in the upper Animas River account for 24 percent of the dissolved zinc load and 14 percent of the dissolved copper load measured at the gage downstream from Mineral Creek (A-72).

		Thirteen thousand to fourteen thousand-foot peaks rise from the banks of the river as you face continuous sections of whitewater that leave your arms shaking from the continuous paddling.
		As the high water of spring recedes, the river settles down a bit and becomes suitable for those looking for a great wilderness trip with lots of technical whitewater, but not quite the intensity of high-water runoff in June.
