Caraway Creek Dam
I stumbled upon this dam on Caraway Creek while doing some work at Mt Shepherd Retreat. The caretaker had told me there was an old mill on the creek which crosses Mt Shepherd property. I was at the creek one afternoon looking for a trail route when I decided to see if I could locate the old mill. After walking downriver about 20 minutes I found myself in the former impoundment area and finally at the dam. it is a massive structure, built without mortar. At the current creek level it is about 14 feet high and probably 250 feet wide.
