Download or read book The Teton Dam Disaster written by Dylan J. McDonald and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While cameras rolled, the newly completed Teton Dam collapsed shortly before noon on June 5, 1976. The resulting wall of water, 80 billion gallons strong, battered town after town during its three-day rampage through the Upper Snake River Valley in eastern Idaho. Impounding the flood-prone Teton River, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation dam failed during the reservoir's initial fill, ripping homes from foundations, drowning thousands of livestock, and stripping acres of valuable topsoil. Amazingly only 11 lives were lost during the disaster, as most residents heeded the flood warnings. Presenting photographs from local newspapers, archives, museums, historical societies, and witnesses, this book documents the dam's spectacular failure, the tremendous damage, and the Herculean cleanup and rebuilding process following one of the worst engineering disasters of the last 50 years. Today the investigation into why the 305-foot-tall earth-fill dam crumbled-ironically a dam built for flood control-still prompts debate.

Download or read book Our Land Our Soul written by Eric I. Soyland and published by Farcountry Press. This book was released on 2014-01-16 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written from the point of view of a wagon master journeying with settlers to the area from Utah and Idaho Territory in 1887 and then returning more than 100 years later, Our Land, Our Soul: Majestic Teton Valley-The Tetons' Western Slope features 102 photographs and Soyland's poetry and prose that celebrate the rare beauty of the region. This is the first book devoted solely to the Teton's western slope, Soyland indicates, and it was a true labor of love. Soyland wrote the text from the point of view of a wagon master because he was intrigued by what early settlers felt when they saw this magnificent valley for the first time, and what they might think could they return in 2011. He writes of the Tetons: A peak so imposing, so Grand as to dominate the sky itself and, yes, surrounding that grand mountain will be three others of lesser size, brothers of the Grand one and there, at their feet will be spread the tablecloth of dreams and hopes come true. Soyland says his goal is to inspire others to protect the landscape and the wildlife that inhabits it so that in another hundred years, and for generations to come, this magical place will remain unchanged.

Book excerpt: This book contains color photos. Alma's Lodge/Teton River Lodge/Teton Valley Lodge is an institution. It has always been a fly fishing camp and will always be a fly fishing camp. It is a place to come and get away from the tribulations and toils of the world. As you float down these majestic rivers and watch the wildlife and attempt to catch and release the noble trout, your cares, if only for a moment, drift away. Alma was a simple man with simple needs. His life was filled with joy because of his family, his religion, his clients, and his passion for fishing. I learned early on that no matter who owns Alma's Lodge, and no matter by what name it is known, it will always be Alma's Lodge. The owners of the lodge are only stewards of the lodge on behalf of Alma Kunz.
