Grand Coulee Dam | Washington State

From Bureau of Reclamation:




Because the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington State #WA is our #DamOfTheWeek, we invite you to enjoy this photograph by Bureau of Reclamation Hydrologic Technician Craig Brougher, which shows the backside of Grand Coulee Dam, with Lake Roosevelt on the right, above the dam; and Rufus Woods Lake on the left, below the dam, both of which are part of the Columbia River. 

The town of Coulee Dam is actually split into two communities on opposite sides of the river, Engineers Town with its Maple Trees showing their Fall colors, and Mason City across the bridge. Both communities were incorporated in 1959 into the town of Coulee Dam.
