A
2002 view
Great
memories of cruising over the dam on a warm summer evening.
The
spillway with nothing to spill
The
intake
As
you can see, the water was a bit low this year (2002)
Truckee
River water adds to the mix
Writing
in the cement when the dam was built (see inset for closeup)
The
power house
This should
be under water
The
Truckee and the Carson aren't the only sources of water- there are a number
of springs as well.
October 2009- water really low now.
