Description
This photograph has three images. The first one (0272_0062) shows the Nevada-side of dam and the intake towers. The picture reads, "Nevada intakes in their infancy. Another kind of stiff leg to handle material for intake towers on Nevada side, see the monkey slide and wiggling stairway - small view of head tower for hi-lines in upper corner." The second one (0272_0063) reads "Good view of rebar that goes into intake towers. Very heavy reinforcement steel. I tied steel a half shift one night. On this tower, Nevada side, and two nights later." The third one (0272_0064) has a handwritten inscription that reads, "A beautiful sight. Intake tower at night."
