Lake Conemaugh






 





Labeled, “…as it appeared in the summer of 1888 or spring 1889...” Credited to National Park Service/Harpers Ferry Center. Should also have been labeled “colorized”, no? If not that is the first color photo of the Lake that I have ever seen. An awful beauty. The break on May 31, 1889 occurred at the dam at far right. Only 2,208 people died.
