The Dam at Noblett Lake

The Dam at Noblett Lake
Originally uploaded by nekosoft.

Sunday driving and writing, I sought out Noblett Lake. The 26 acre lake is only about five feet deep, and the excess water flows over the dam.

The dam was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps between 1938 and 1940. The workers used four small cement mixers, each holding only one bag of concrete each. There's a boat landing and a couple of picnic tables.

There was a Geocache in the area, but I didn't realize it until a few minutes ago. It's only ten minutes from my house, perhaps I'll seek it out this week.
