ROOSEVELT DAM AND LAKE.
This picture shows some of the masonry of the great Roosevelt
Dam, and the graceful three-arched bridge over the spillways, as
you look down upon them from the "Apache Trail." The driveway
across the crest of the dam is 1,125 feet in length and 16 feet wide.
The height of the dam from the bed of the Salt River is 284 feet.
The area of the reservoir is 16.320 acres, and its water irrigates
230,000 acres in th Salt River Valley. The water it impounds
forms a lake thirty miles long and four miles wide at the broadest
part.
