Colorado Parks & Wildlife Hatchery technicians transferred yearling Greenback Cutthroat trout from a truck into buckets at the Herman Gulch trailhead on July 17, 2017, in Clear Creek County near Silver Plume. The technicians then placed the fish in plastic bags with oxygen to be transported by backpackers to Herman Gulch where they were released. CPW aquatic biologists and volunteers from Trout Unlimited released 960 pure bred Greenback Cutthroat Trout into Herman Gulch. Efforts to establish new populations have grown and CPW hopes the introduction of these fish into Herman Gulch will successfully increase their wild numbers.
