    Tips

    This was once a diversion dam used for supplying power to nearby mining facilities and communities. The dam was since partially removed and is now a very cool hiking landmark that is accessible by the Fossil Springs Trail or Flume Trail. Keep in mind that you need a reservation/day pass to hike here during certain times of the year.
