Hetch Hetchy - Before and After the Dam
Lost Under the Lake
The "Lost Under the Lake" series shows images of Hetch Hetchy taken nearly one hundred years ago with a rollover overlay showing in blue the current level of the lake. These images clearly show the beautiful valley lost under the dam.

Yesterday and Today
The following are the same images as above, but instead paired with a contemporary image from the same location. I have kept both types of images here because they serve slightly different purposes and give a different impression of the changes to the valley.
