July 20, 2019 - Turquoise Paddle
At 389 feet, the Diablo Dam was the tallest dam in the world when it was completed in 1930. It was the second in a trio of dams - Gorge and Ross were the others - built to harness the energy of the glacier fed Skagit River. The Ross dam, built just upstream was completed in 1949. It created a reservoir 23 miles long that extends into Canada.
Davis Peak (7,051') rises above the turquoise waters of Diablo Lake. The unique color of this and other nearby reservoirs, is cause by the glacial silt suspended in the water.
