I show the coordinates for Presa La Palma as follows:
Latitude/Longitude:
N 30° 43' 0.01" W 108° 15' 0.00" (30.71667, -108.25000)
The dam I visited is located at the following:
Latitude/Longitude:
N 23° 15' 12.98" W 109° 49' 33.79"
The gates were still open when we were there so no water had collected.
There was some construction on the back side of the dam which does not show up in the pictures I took. It looked like they were pouring concrete on
some sort of structure that was located at the North end on the down stream side. We did not go down to see what they were doing.
