Whose satellite dish is on Rampart Range Road?

QUESTION: While driving up Rampart Range Road from Garden of Gods Park recently, we noticed a large pole with satellite dishes on it just before the shooting range (it was 5.4 miles up the road). It’s in a barbed-wire fenced-in area with a large water tank next to it. Any ideas what the pole is for?

ANSWER: We checked with various entities involved with Rampart Range Road but none knew the answer. We’re hoping a reader can help us out.

these often are dishes for transmitting environmental monitoring measurements like rainfall, water quality, temperature, wind, etc. by satellite. In that remote location, its probably solar-powered and data is only transmitted 2 to 25 times a day, in short bursts.
