@melissabeartrix @finn IIRC (grew up near there & visited a few times), the sound is a monumentally impressive white noise roar, the other end is whitewater leaping from a row of rectangular window-shaped openings set into the base of the dam & then forming a lovely creek, & the purpose of the reservoir is irrigation rather than hydropower. @melissabeartrix @finn You’re welcome. 😊 I’d happily let you take the first turn on the water slide (& all subsequent turns). I was *terrified* of that thing as a kid. I still can’t look at it without imagining a small boat being pulled into its increasingly irresistible current & then over the edge, down to whatever form of macerating concrete maw lies at the bottom. (Okay, that’s maybe not the vocabulary I would have used as a kid. 😏) Bodysurfing down that creek at the bottom, though… 😍 |
@melissabeartrix nope no power generation! just an overflow
