Abyss Pool

Abyss Pool is a hot spring in the West Thumb Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park in the United States. History The pool was named by Chief Park Naturalist Clyde M. Bauer, possibly after a reference to Lieutenant G.C. Doane's 1870 description of a spring in this area which spoke of the visibility of objects in the "deep abysses" of the pool. A visitor in 1883 described it as "a great, pure, sparkling sapphire rippling with heat.". Geology Abyss Pool has a depth of 53 feet (16 m). The pool erupted for the first time in recorded history between August 1987 and September 1991 and again between December 1991 and June 1992. The eruptions were between 30 feet (9.1 m) and 100 feet (30 m) high. Since 1992, the pool has returned to its non-eruptive state. See also List of Yellowstone geothermal features References
Abyss Pool

Abyss Pool est une source chaude située dans le West Thumb Geyser Basin dans le parc national de Yellowstone aux États-Unis. Histoire La source a été nommée par le naturaliste et chef du parc Clyde M. Bauer, éventuellement après que le Lieutenant Gustavus Cheyney Doane a décrit, en 1870, une source dans cette région. Il évoquait la visibilité des objets dans « les profondeurs des abysses » de la source. Un visiteur en 1883 l'a décrit comme « un grand, pur, brillant saphir ondulant avec la chaleur ». Géologie Abyss Pool a une profondeur de 16 m. La source est entrée en éruption pour la première fois dans l'histoire entre août 1987 et septembre 1991 et de nouveau entre décembre 1991 et juin 1992. Les éruptions faisaient entre 9,1 m et 30,5 m de haut. Depuis 1992, la source est éteinte et n'entre ainsi plus en éruption.

Talsperre Alcova

Die Talsperre Alcova (englisch Alcova Dam) ist eine Talsperre mit Wasserkraftwerk im Natrona County, Bundesstaat Wyoming, USA. Sie staut den North Platte River zu einem Stausee (englisch Alcova Reservoir) auf. Die Talsperre befindet sich ungefähr 16 km (10 miles) flussabwärts der Talsperre Pathfinder und ca. 48 km (30 miles) südwestlich der Stadt Casper. Mit dem Bau der Talsperre wurde im August 1935 begonnen. Sie wurde 1937 fertiggestellt. Die Talsperre diente ursprünglich ausschließlich der Bewässerung. Der Bau des zugehörigen Wasserkraftwerks wurde 1950 beschlossen. Es wurde 1955 fertiggestellt. Die Talsperre ist im Besitz des United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) und wird auch vom USBR betrieben. Absperrbauwerk Das Absperrbauwerk ist ein Erdschüttdamm mit einer Höhe von 80 m (265 ft) über der Gründungssohle. Die Dammkrone liegt auf einer Höhe von 1679 m (5510 ft) über dem Meeresspiegel. Die Länge der Dammkrone beträgt 232,5 m (763 ft). Das Volumen des Bauwerks beträgt 1,25 Mio. m³ (1,635 Mio. cubic yards). Die Hochwasserentlastung befindet sich auf der linken Seite des Damms. Über sie können maximal 1557 m³/s (55.000 cft/s) abgeleitet werden. Die Errichtungskosten des Staudamms betrugen 20 Mio. USD. Stausee Beim normalen Stauziel von 1676 m (5500 ft) erstreckt sich der Stausee über eine Fläche von rund 10 km² (2470 acres) und fasst 227,45 Mio. m³ (184.405 acre-feet) Wasser; davon können 37,75 Mio. m³ (30,606 acre-feet) für Bewässerungszwecke verwendet werden. Vom Stausee geht ein Bewässerungskanal (englisch Casper Canal) ab, der auf der linken (nördlichen) Flussseite in Richtung der Stadt Casper verläuft. Das Stauziel des Stausees wird relativ konstant gehalten, um den Kanal jederzeit mit ausreichend Wasser versorgen zu können. Kraftwerk Das Kraftwerk befindet sich am Fuß der Talsperre auf der rechten Flussseite. Die installierte Leistung beträgt 41,4 MW. Die installierte Leistung lag ursprünglich bei 36 MW. Die durchschnittliche Jahreserzeugung liegt bei 88 (bzw. mehr als 100) Mio. kWh. Die zwei Francis-Turbinen des Kraftwerks leisten jede maximal 18 (bzw. 20,7) MW. Die Fallhöhe beträgt 50 m (165 ft).

Alcova Dam

Alcova Dam (National ID # WY01290) is a 265-foot (81 m) tall zoned earthfill dam in central Wyoming, built in 1935-38 on the North Platte River and operated by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation for water storage and hydroelectric power generation. The dam was built as part of the Kendrick Project, formerly the Casper-Alcova Project, whose central features are Alcova and Seminoe dams. Alcova Powerplant comprises two generating units, each 18 MW. The reservoir's capacity is 184,405 acre-feet (0.227460 km3), but only 30,606 acre-feet (0.037752 km3) may be used for irrigation. History Alcova Canyon was first surveyed for potential damsites in 1903. In 1921 a dam was proposed at Alcova to divert water to Casper, irrigating 60,000 acres (24,000 ha). The project was authorized in 1933, with $15,000,000 allocated by 1936. Initially titled the Casper-Alcova Project, the effort was renamed the Kendrick Project in 1937 to honor Wyoming senator John B. Kendrick. Work on a diversion tunnel began in 1933. Work on the dam started in 1935, carried out by a joint venture of W.E. Callahan Construction of Dallas, Texas, and Gunther and Shirley of Los Angeles, California. Earthfill placement started in 1936.and was completed in 1937. The reservoir was filled in 1938, with final completion of the dam on May 8, 1938. The powerplant was not started until 1952, completed three years later. Geology Alcova Dam is situated within an anticline; a Laramide-age fold located on the southeastern margin of the Wind River Basin. The North Platte River has carved a deep canyon directly through the axis of this anticline, exposing vertical walls of ancient sedimentary rock. The dam itself is anchored in a narrow gap where the river sliced through resistant rock ridges. In the immediate vicinity of the dam, the rock layers generally dip toward the northeast or east at angles ranging from 9° to 13°. The rock in this area is Tensleep sandstone and Alcova limestone, a member of the Chugwater Formation.

Ames Monument

Ames Monument is een monument in de vorm van een piramide in de Amerikaanse staat Wyoming. Het werd ontworpen door Henry Hobson Richardson en opgedragen aan de broers Oakes Ames en Oliver Ames Jr., financiers van de Union Pacific Railroad. Het markeerde het hoogste punt op de eerste transcontinentale spoorweg, op 2.514 m. Het monument werd opgetrokken tussen 1880 en 1882 en kostte 65.000 dollar. Het is gebouwd uit lokaal gewonnen graniet. De aanleg van de spoorweg die de oost- en westkust van Amerika moest beginnen was een initiatief van Abraham Lincoln die in 1862 hiervoor een wet ondertekende. Oakes en Oliver Ames waren ondernemers en vrienden van de president. De plaats Sherman ontstond rond deze plek maar het werd een spookstad toen de spoorweg naar het zuiden werd verlegd. Galerij

Anderson Lodge

The Anderson Lodge or Anderson Studio was built in 1890 in the Absaroka Range west of Meeteetse, Wyoming, in what was then the Yellowstone Park Timber Land Reserve, soon renamed the Yellowstone Forest Reserve. The two-story rustic log structure became the home of rancher and artist Abraham Archibald Anderson from 1901 to 1905. Anderson played a significant role in the development of the forest reserve as Special Superintendent of Forest Reserves, and the Anderson Lodge was used as an administrative building for the forest. The National Register lists the site as a historic district, including the Anderson Lodge, a one-room log cabin, an outhouse, two log footbridges, a developed spring, and a pole corral. Its significance is related to its wilderness setting, its association with the beginning of a national conservation movement in the United States, and the early history of the United States Forest Service. The lodge location is now managed as part of Shoshone National Forest, in the Washakie Wilderness. References External links Anderson Lodge at the Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office
Arena-Auditorium

Arena-Auditorium is a 11,612-seat multi-purpose arena in Laramie, Wyoming. The arena opened in 1982 and has since been the home of the University of Wyoming Cowboys basketball team, as well as home to the Cowgirls basketball team since 2003. It replaced the previous home of Cowboys basketball, War Memorial Fieldhouse. Nicknamed the "Pimple on the Prairie", "Dome of Doom", and the "Double A," the Arena-Auditorium is the highest NCAA Division I college basketball court in the nation, built at an elevation of 7,220 ft (2,201 m). The facility hosted the 1986 and 1991 Western Athletic Conference men's basketball tournaments. It also hosted the West Regional of the 2006 NCAA Wrestling Tournament. The largest crowd to watch a basketball game at the Arena-Auditorium was on March 2, 2002 when Wyoming played Utah in men's basketball. Wyoming won that game by a final score of 57–56 in front of 16,089 people. In 2007 the Cowgirls hosted 5 Women's National Invitation Tournament (WNIT) games at the Double A, plus the March 31st WNIT championship game in which Wyoming beat the Wisconsin Badgers 72–56. For the title game against Wisconsin, the women's basketball team sold out the Double A in less than 14 hours following their semi-final victory against Kansas State. The 15,462 in attendance was largest crowd ever for a women's basketball game played at the University of Wyoming, as well as the second biggest crowd ever at the Double A and second biggest in WNIT tournament history. Then-Senator Barack Obama spoke to a capacity crowd at the Double A on March 7, 2008. The speech was as a part of the future President's campaign to win the Wyoming Democratic Party caucus, which he did win the following day.

Baby Glacier (Wyoming)

Baby Glacier is in the Bridger Wilderness of Bridger-Teton National Forest, in the U.S. state of Wyoming. The glacier is immediately west of the much larger Mammoth Glacier, both of which are on the west side of the Continental Divide in the northern Wind River Range. The glacier occupies a north facing cirque and flows northward from the slopes of Mount Whitecap. Baby Glacier is in the Bridger Wilderness and is part of the largest grouping of glaciers in the American Rocky Mountains. Hazards Encountering bears is a concern in the Wind River Range. There are other concerns as well, including bugs, wildfires, adverse snow conditions and nighttime cold temperatures. Importantly, there have been notable incidents, including accidental deaths, due to falls from steep cliffs (a misstep could be fatal in this class 4/5 terrain) and due to falling rocks, over the years, including 1993, 2007 (involving an experienced NOLS leader), 2015 and 2018. Other incidents include a seriously injured backpacker being airlifted near SquareTop Mountain in 2005, and a fatal hiker incident (from an apparent accidental fall) in 2006 that involved state search and rescue. The U.S. Forest Service does not offer updated aggregated records on the official number of fatalities in the Wind River Range. References See also List of glaciers in the United States
