- Description
- Photo showing the destruction to the Paquette Dam caused by heavy rains and flooding of the Current River., The rains poured from mid May, swelling streams already engorged by sudden spring runoff. At the foot of a steep valley, a few miles downstream from the Onion Lake Dam, the smaller Paquette Dam, eroded and undermined, began to give way under the extra burden., The Paquette Dam was never rebuilt.
