In 1927 the city of Boulder acquired the Arapaho Glacier as part of a 3,685 acre land purchase from the federal government for the purpose of protecting the city's water supply. Boulder now has the distinction of being the only city in the United States that owns a glacier. It also owns several pristine lakes further down the valley that are strictly off limits to the public.
