Morrow Point Dam Area

These are a selection of pictures taken in the Morrow Point Dam Area near Cimarron, Colorado. Before the dam was built, a Narrow Gauge Train used to run through the slim passages of Black Canyon. The train is on display at the dam site (Row 1, Pictures 1 and 2). The dam is 469 feet high and 740 feet long at the top. The Mesa Creek Trail runs along the discharge from the dam. The Crystal Dam is down stream from the Morrow Point Dam. Check out the description of the dam in Picture 1, Row 2. Click on the thumbnail pictures to see an expanded view.
