Teton Dam Spillway








The ruins of the Teton Dam spillway in 2011

The breach and collapse of the the Teton Dam on June 5, 1976 caused tremendous environmental, economic, and social damage.  The dam site is located in Madison and Fremont counties. You can visit the site by traveling on highway 33 towards Driggs, Idaho.  Turn left on Teton Dam Road, 12000 East.  The turn off is marked by an Idaho historical marker.  The spillway is located on the north side of the river in Fremont County.
