- Black and white photo of washout where the water rose 3.6 feet above normal over the Current River Dam. This flash flood ruined sections of Highway ll near Orient Bay. Ontario Department of Highways worked through the night to repair a 30 foot section that dug a 6 foot gully across the road. Damage was caused by a torrent of water that came down from nearby rocky hills. This photo shows damage to the rail line.
