Cascade Dam Failure


 

This sequence of shots shows Cascade Dam being overtopped by the discharge from the breach of Lawn Lake Dam as it flows down Fall River. First, the Control Cabin withstands the flow. Then, the structure is ripped from the dam and it falls into the flow. In the third shot, water to the right of where the cabin had been indicates the collapse of the dam itself.
