We just added some photos of Chief Joseph Dam near Bridgeport, Washington. Even many local people don’t know this, but Chief Joseph Dam is the second leading producer of hydroelectric power in the country.

With Grand Coulee Dam just upriver, Chief Joseph Dam is often overlooked but is a vital part of the local power grid. Nearby is Bridgeport State Park and also a golf course.

A trip to Chief Joseph Dam makes for a nice day trip.
