Water Vapor Rising from the Tuolumne River

Water Vapor Rising from the Tuolumne River

This is an overhead view of the Tuolumne River. The O'Shaughnessy Dam can be seen, to the right. The floodgates of the dam are open, and water is pouring into the river. The force of the rushing water entering the river is creating a mist.
