Aug 02 2019 - Left Tailrace COE Campground at The Big Ben Dam

We found this nice COE campground at the Big Ben Damn in Chamberlain South Dakota. Love watching the fishermen ride their boats up to the dam then float away catching fish. Then they take off toward the dam again and float again.
















We met Bruce and Jackie at this campground.


We also met Gerry and Barbara who travels with Bruce and Jackie whom are all from Maine.


What a nice couple here.

Free dump and fresh water here.




Those pipes are at the bottom of the low side of the dam and they connect to pipes on the very highest part of the high water side of the dam. I assume that if the water gets too high the it runs down the pipes and pops the lids off to allow water to bypass the dam. This would only happen the dam could not release enough water.
