Since this project is now under way and the dam will soon be just a memory I thought some folks might appreciate this pic from the April 2005 flood. This was after the river had receded approx. 6 feet. At its crest the Delaware had actually backed up into Columbia lake by nearly 3 feet flooding the access lane along the south side for a time. you can see the debris in the bushes in the foreground indicating how high the water had been. Remember, this is an 18 foot high dam.
