Hiking Hillside Dam

Hillside Dam is a good place to go see, but even better yet, it is a good place to go with a group for a cookout and a day of relaxation. There you can swim, explore your surroundings, sunbathe and climb to the top of the dam.

The dam was a hydro-electric plant, but storms "mash up" most of the machinery and the plant closed.Now the water cascades over the dam's concrete lip, making a deep swimming pool at the base.
