Dam
According to the Idaho Power website: http://www.idahopower.com/AboutUs/OurPowerPlants/Hydroelectric/hydroelectric.cfm
"Idaho Power built the original plant in 1935 and updated it in 1995 with a diversion structure and two powerhouses with a total nameplate generating capacity of 52,737 kilowatts. It's located at river mile 617.4."
According to the Clicky Chicks:
We think this park is a wonderful, hidden treasure in Twin Falls. The park area is beautiful with fun places to climb, enjoy a relaxing meal and take in the outdoors. We looked for historical information on-line about this waterfall and the power company but found little than the above snippit. If one of you fine followers of our little blog has any facts you'd like to contribute, please do!
