Looking for a place to spend the night, I drove to the failed Teton Dam overlook.  Once there, it looked vandalized.  There were no signs explaining what had happen or what I was looking at.  Just a paved surface, curbing and sidewalks.  And then I began to understand.  I was at the overlook built to showcase the dam – its ability to provide power, reduce flooding, and provide irrigation water.  Now all mention of the failed dam has been removed from the overlook.  There was nothing.  It was as if the wish was to remove all memory of the dam. The spillway can be seen, that is the only reminder that a dam once stood there. The spillway now provides a new purpose, a surface for artists to express themselves on.
