Long Sault Area - Cofferdam & Dam

This shows how difficult it was to close off the final gap in the cofferdam as they attempted to shut off the rapids. This was a real wall of water that swept everything away they threw at it ... but ultimately mother nature lost.

The other picture shows the majestic arc of the Long Sault dam. Note the portion of Bailey bridge on the right hand side still in position on the downstream side.
