Why can’t the US build infrastructure that automatically siphons water from flood zones to the west during flood seasons?

Colorado is pretty much in the epicenter of this mega drought. However, Colorado is also like 1 mile above sea level. In order to move the water from the food zones to Colorado you’ll have to pump the water hundreds of miles west and a mile up. Alternatively, you could dig a canal a mile deep through the Rocky Mountains and let gravity do the work. But that would just be a human version of the Grand Canyon (and much bigger).
