Theodore Roosevelt Dam -- 100 years

Roosevelt Dam, this year celebrating is 100th anniversary, has played a major part in my life from time to time. One of my first significant outdoor experiences was a trip down the Apache Trail from north to south that included a stop to swim in Roosevelt Lake. At that time it was a rubble-masonry dam, but in 1989 the dam was raised 77 feet to the height of 357 feet. In 2009, the lake reached capacity with the new addition to the dam.

Here is an old picture of the dam before the 1989 alterations.
