Description
Photograph of the Friant Dam and Friant-Kern Canal in Fresno, [s.d.]. The wide, lightly-colored dam stands on the left with a picturesque scene of short, grassy hills behind it. Roads wind from the hills in the background down through the spots of trees on the left to a long, lightly-colored structure just in front of the dam. A small, clear field lies to the right of the structure with a bridge extending from its edge, over the thin canal at center to a second field on the right. What appear to be tire tracks strip the tall, lightly-colored grass on the right while a small, lightly-colored structure stands in a small forest in the background on the far right.
