Parker Dam

Parker Dam is a concrete arch structure commonly called the 'deepest dam in the world'. Built between 1934 and 1938 by the Bureau of Reclamation, it is 320 feet high, 235 feet of which are below the riverbed. The dam's primary functions are to create a reservoir, and to generate hydroelectric power. The dam straddles the Arizona-California state border at the narrows the river passes through between the Whipple Mountains in San Bernardino County.
