The dam is on the Ottauquechee River, and holds back the waters of Dewey’s Mill Pond before they flow over the 30-foot Mill Pond Falls and through Quechee Gorge.  Apparently this is called Vermont’s “Little Grand Canyon.”

It’s impressive as dams go, but i think the title “Little Grand Canyon” (even with the ‘little’ in there), is stretching it.  I guess this dam has one hell of a big ego.

And here’s Loki, doing his best Regal Beagle impression as a malamute nearby goes nuts on his leash and almost bites his owner.
