I don't know where I have been for the last 35 years of my life, but I didn't know that this dam was built to prevent flooding in Rochester! It is mind boggling to me that there could possibly be enough water to fill this dam (why would they build it this big if it wasn't necessary).
You can see that water has carved the basin below the dam.
Equally amazing is the fact that the waterfall in the picture below is 17 miles up the gorge from the dam! Look at the last picture of the dam and you can see that there is hardly any water at the bottom. Where does it all go!!
