The Milne Dam creates the Milne Reservoir and helps protect communities downstream of the Rogue River from flooding. Originally associated with the Milne family mills established in the 1820s, this site later became home to Canada’s first concrete-and-steel arch dam, built by Archie Milne in 1911, before the current structure was rebuilt in 1969 after severe damage from Hurricane Hazel. Today, it remains a defining feature of the park and is a scenic focal point along the trail.
