Mountain Chute Dam, Near Calabogie

The dam is the dead-end at the south end of the paved, unnumbered road the runs south from Calabogie, past the ski hills. It is the continuation of highway 508, which loses its highway number at Calabogie.

After you pass under the Hydro wires a few Km farther south, note the right turn with many cottage signs. That's Black Donald road. (Don't turn there now.)

Just keep going on this road. Watch your speed -- you're going to find a dead end.

You will find yourself at the base of a Hydro dam. Lots of places to park and wander around, plus a pretty lagoon. There are often people fishing there, and sometimes wildlife. Very pretty view back up-river. A paved road crosses the lagoon and proceeds uphill. This has nice scenery and lets you visit the top of the dam. However, the pavement runs out at the top of the dam, and a dirt road continues into cottage areas.

Bottom of the Dam -- the spillway and lagoon are down the hill on the left.	Looking back up-river from the same spot. That bridge leads to the top.
On the hill leading to the top -- great view.	Top of the dam, reservoir lake.
