Barker Reservoir is a water supply reservoir in the Colorado Front Range located near the town of Nederland, Colorado. Barker Dam is a hydroelectric power generating facility. The reservoir provides water to the city of Boulder, Colorado. In 1908, the Central Colorado Power Company began construction of Barker Dam to provide electricity to nearby mining communities and the city of Denver. The dam and Barker Meadow Reservoir were named for the owner of the land, Mrs. Hannah Connell Barker..
