A View of the Tuolumne River from the O'Shaughnessy Dam

This picture was taken from the top of the O'Shaughnessy Dam. The floodgates of the dam are open, and overflow from the reservoir is cascading from the spillway channel, creating a mist above the river. The Tuolumne River can be seen, on the valley floor.
