Buffalo Bill Dam · 07:55 PM

Originally the Shoshone Dam, until renamed by president Truman in 1946.

Flotsam collecting against the dam.

Winch display.

Valve and ball plug display.

Visitor center displays.

Not far down the road is this siphon.

There is more to Yellowstone than geysers and bison, great information. Bob

Nice shots.

The construction of arch dams dates back from the Roman era (the Glanum dam in southern France) but were not that common until the 1900s. A remarkable structure was the cupola arch dam completed in New York in 1903. Called Ithaca dam, it is still standing near Cornell University.

Thank you for sharing the shots.
