Damage suffered but dam held

The Redridge steel dam is seen from downstream. While the six holes cut through the dam can be plainly seen draining water from the reservoir, the actual outlet pipes are along the surface of the river below. Three of the four still function in some capacity. The Father’s Day Flood of 2018 severely stressed the structure, however. (Houghton Daily Mining Gazette photo by Joshua Vissers)
