The high pressure with which the water is released at the bottom of McCloud dam is creating an impressive fountain. It can now be safely observed from the FR 11 roadside, as it is closed to traffic from here onwards to the south.

Cycling

A little bit below the dam is an interesting water jet in the river, shooting a significant high water column into the air to release the dam water. Beyond this point the road is closed to cars since about 2018 due to a landslide. Bikes and hikers can continue.
