Gerber G. 2009. Gaging Station Data and Reports - Montezuma Castle National Monument, Montezuma Well Outlet Near Rimrock #343853111450201, Water Years 2002-2005. Water Resources Division, Water Rights Branch
The NPS Water Rights Branch installed the Montezuma Well Outlet near Rimrock stream gaging station in March of 2002 to monitor flows leaving Montezuma Well. The Well is a 300 foot wide limnocrene (pooled spring) at Montezuma Castle National Monument in Yavapai County, Arizona. The Station is located on the Montezuma Well Outlet Ditch, an ancient irrigation ditch with flows varying from 1.25 to 3.25 cfs. The accuracy of the Station equipment and data is good. The Arizona District of the USGS operated a gaging station at this location from April 1977 to October 1992 (Station # 09505260). The NPS Water Rights Branch discontinued data collection at the Station as of October 2005.
