Description: This photo shows the site of the St. Francis Dam in 2009, looking from northwest to southeast across San Francisquito Canyon. The remains of the wing dike made necessary by changes to the height of the dam while under construction are visible on the left. The area of paeleolandslide that contributed to the failure of the dam is visible on the far side of the canyon. This image differs from the original photograph in that it has been cropped and the color balance and saturation have been modestly enhanced.
