Mountain Park Dam

The lake is maintained at sufficient elevation to provide a plunge pool for water released or spilled from the dam.

The outlet works for Mountain Park Dam are in the left thrust block and include three outlet pipes, trashracks, fish screens, emergency and operating slide gates, and motor-operated gate hoists.

The concrete arch portion of Mountain Park Dam functions as an uncontrolled, overflow spillway.

The crest is at the top of the exclusive flood control pool at elevation 1,414.0, and is 320 feet (98 m) long measured along the axis of the dam.

Concrete piers and training walls at each end of the spillway direct floodwater into and over the crest.
