The devastating Colorado Big-Thompson Flood of 1976 is summarized. The Lawn Lake Flood of 1982 and its aftermath is discussed in detail. The 2013 Front Range Floods in Colorado are detailed with an emphasis on the area adjacent to Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP). The removal or repair of deteriorating historical dams in the Park following the Lawn Lake Flood, and the restoration of the natural lake ecosystems at these sites is discussed. The author describes his hikes to four of the restored lakes, and the interpretive efforts to educate the visitor about the Lawn Lake Flood at the site of the alluvial fan in Horseshoe Park. Finally, the author summarizes the visitor impacts on the Park with overcrowding, and the demands of a growing Front Range population on the water resources of the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel N.
