Twin Box infall, slight decline beyond the three large debris fences. 4-6 inches flowing water headed in. Slippery algae abounds in the flowing water. At the infall, two RCP's head out to the nearby gutterboxes from the culvert wall itself.
It's pretty long, though I can't say precisely how deep it really is. A few wends and one long gradual slide at the end. Entry halls are maybe 9' by 9' but the exit hall is as many as 3 feet wider and 4-5 feet taller.
Light graffiti on the way in on both sides

Foiund this infall on the way to scout the Check-A-Mix, was solo and on the landspeeder so I only got an initial look.
Double box entry, declines slightly from entrance. Lots of algae and about 6 inches of flowing water, wear ubers. The center bit of barricade looks like it will lift up.
Named for the text inside the left box on the way in
"CB Jammed Pleasure Dome" see pic.
This parallells the Diagonal's (hwy 119) route through town as far as I can see.
I've read that most of Longmont's Storm Drainage was built in the 30's and the 50's so I guess it could be from one of those builds.
-UPDATE-
Sometime in the years of 2010-2011 the infall was been renovated. Access is now surprisingly difficult, but is possible on the top right side...If you are skinny and exhale while passing through. Bring an innertube for one helluva ride.

I think this will drain it's way well into the future.
