Most people think of [O’Shaughnessy Dam] as being a behemoth that holds back the Tuolumne keeping [Hetch Hetchy] Valley submerged beneath hundreds of feet of water. Jared Kelly has managed to catch a different side of the dam in today’s Photo of the Day showing what a beautiful place Hetch Hetchy still is even though it’s a little wet.
Love the clouds and the color in the sky. Great shot Jared.

Congratulations! This is a very nice shot. I love the color, specially the sky.
But think how much more beautiful if the sky and the clouds were the same, but the reservoir were replaced by a valley comparable to Yosemite Valley.
How long would it take to restore the valley to that kind of shape?
A generation? Two? Three?
