Incredible video, what a marvel! Driving through the central valley it is remarkable to see how much production this dam supports

My grandfather was one of the guys who ran the headtower thats him in the video
That’s amazing
California needs many more reservoirs like Shasta
You gotta love progress in the early part of the 1900s the slogan was, “Nature be dammed”

Back when this country could actually construct something worthwhile. Unlike the high-speed rail.
Bigfoot Mountain...
And it all went to $hit.
Let's compare to China dam, China made 10 times higher than US dam
The 3 Gorges dam is in danger of failing. You need quality work and design to claim success.
