As the westbound Zephyr rolls at track speed away from the camera at Crescent, we get nice view of the Continental Divide in the distance, as well as a good view of the dam at Gross Reservoir. Construction on the dam has been ongoing four about four years, as the dam is being raised by over 100 feet, a project that will triple the capacity of Gross Reservoir.
