Shasta Dam, lake, and mountain (1120)

Shasta Dam, lake, and mountain  (1120)
Shasta Dam, Lake Shasta, and barely visible in the upper center of the picture, Mt. Shasta. Construction of Shasta Dam started in 1937 and was finished in 1945. The Wikipedia link (below) provides excellent coverage of the actual construction and the environmental issues. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shasta_Dam_)
