Shasta Dam: California's Empire Builder 

I love the Redding/Chico area ,it's beautiful

Incredible video, what a marvel! Driving through the central valley it is remarkable to see how much production this dam supports

My grandfather was one of the guys who ran the headtower thats him in the video

used to take my boat out on the lake 3 days a week......miss those good times now

California needs many more reservoirs like Shasta

My grandpa met my grandma there when he was working on the dam.before it was done he left to fight in the Pacific ww2

It is too bad our youngsters do not learn about the benefits of this great project.

You gotta love progress in the early part of the 1900s the slogan was, “Nature be dammed”

Very historical👍

Ang ganda

Yep, the guy who control the Head Tower might have been known as a winch operator, but they are known in the underground mining industry as hoist drivers.

What is the name of the soundtrack at

When can the lake be viewed as full?

American is a amazing nation ❤ sad to see what a unbalance government in CA. The Democrats have destroyed this state. My heart is sad. Praying for CA

Break the dam release the river....

Back when this country could actually construct something worthwhile. Unlike the high-speed rail.

And it all went to $hit.
