Disappearing River

Colorado River- Nat. Geographic
By now I am sure that we all are familiar with the effects of draw down on the Colorado river.  Much like the economy of Greece, the neighboring states are learning that you can't pull out 110% of the water in a river.

A new map on the National Geographic web page diagrams where the water goes in a dramatic fashion.  The map is worth a look.  Click on the Zoomable Map button in the right upper corner of the National Geographic page with the map.
