Notes
- Description
- ANSWER: Shown in the photo is the Cascades, which tumbles beneath Foothill Blvd. and the Golden State Freeway out beyond San Fernando. This is Owens River water, pictured at the terminus of the 233-mile Owens River Aqueduct. It is, of course, a project of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and some of that water cascading down there could very well have provided your morning shower.
