This 717 foot high concrete structure is the highest straight axis gravity dam in North America. The dam backs up water from the North Fork of the Clearwater River, forming a 54-mile lake at full pool. Flood control, power production, and recreation are the benefits of the Dworshak Project. Guided tours of the dam and power plant begin from the Visitor Center located on the top left side of the dam.
