This is a diversion dam situated on Cache Creek, several miles above Capay in Yolo County, completed February 1913, at a cost of $45,000. On the right is the headgate of Adams Canal which supplies water for lands on north side of Cache Creek. At the south end of the dam, just outside the picture, is a similar headgate for Winters Canal, which supplies lands in the neighborhood of Madison and thence south to Winters and east to Davis.
