| Title | East End Crevice |
| Description | A crevice in foundation at east end of dam. During excavation workers often encountered deep crevices that required earth removal down to their bottoms and then heavy concrete grouting to fill in the fractures at the base of the crevice before block pours could occur on top of these crevices. This crevice is the largest found and required the construction of the "Ice Dam" to clear debris flow to fully excavate the crevice. |
