Originally constructed as the Shoshone Dam it was once the highest dam in the world. Below is an informational panel.
On our way out to the Dam I thought this red outcropping was interesting.
The lake formed by the dam is very large and provides some very scenic views.
The visitor center at the Dam also serves as the visitor center for the Buffalo Bill Cody state park. The web site for the visitor center is https://bbdvc.com/. It is in this building and has several interesting views
Here is the view of the parking lot from near the Visitor Center and the scenic view.
There are many unique geological formations near the Dam.
Two of the interesting views from the Visitor Center are below.
We hope you find this blog post interesting.
Really enjoy all of these photos. The detail in the sky was amazing. I’ve only seen this from thousands of feet from an airplane.
Enjoyed the photos, the explanations that went along with the photos, and the video at the end. Thanks Larry!
