Lake Mohave feeder (8)

I believe the answer is:

colorado

(Other definitions for colorado that I've seen before include "Boulder's state" , "Beetle whose larvae destroy potato plants" , "American state, capital Denver" , "US state has a strangely cool road" , "State in the Rockies" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
