They are going to do some repair to the dam, so they drained Prickett Dam, much to our surprise when we arrived there one day when we took a ride to get some photos of some autumn color here in the U.P.
So here is Part Two of the drained dam pictures that captivated me when we got there.
Before long, all of these tangled tree roots and stumps will be covered once again under the water and a smooth lake will hide them.
But look how spooky it looked when we got there!
Like a wasteland against the backdrop of the far shore, which was bright with autumn color!:
But LOOK at one of the many tangled tree roots we saw!
Each one was like a sculpture or work of art to my eyes:
This entire tree looked like it was left "high and dry" in the middle of the lake's bottom:
Another long shot of the dam to show you how many stumps there were hiding under its water!:
Some stumps were left upside down, which made them look like mushrooms!:
Some were so dramatic that I had to do some black and white photos of them:
Look at this HUGE root!:
And the draining of the dam left some victims of nature there:
What a contrast! Barren roots and a shore of color:
I loved this giant tree root too.
Stay tuned for Part Three of Three, which will be the last of this three part series of Prickett Dam.
I could have taken hundreds of photos of nature's art there~!
