The Colorado River cutthroat has been called one of the most spectacular of the cutthroat trout and one of the most beautiful fish in North America.
They have a bright yellow-gold body with a brassy-green back and orange belly.
Colorado River cutthroat trout are spring spawners, although low water temperatures at altitude can push spawning back as late as July.
Restoration of CRCT habitat needs to address both habitat quality issues and issues of spatial limitation
