The river pours out of a diversion tunnel

Name: The river pours out of a diversion tunnel
Uploaded: 2026-08-31T03:43:42.528Z
Duration: 23 s
Description: The river bursts white and churning from the dark, cavernous mouth of a tunnel, its concrete-lined portal rising at the right; two men in work clothes stand on the rocks at the edge of the opening, dwarfed by it. In late 1932 the Colorado was turned into the diversion tunnels, and cofferdams closed off the dry site where the dam would stand.
