Brown Mountain Dam
Take the Video Tour

The Arroyo Seco Stream Team took a hike to Brown Mountain Dam on August 19, 2011. You might recognize Jonathan Frame, Tim Martinez, Wilson Lau, or Jason. View the Arroyo Seco stream in the dead of August, Pasadena's water intake facilities, the sediment buildup in the canyon and Brown Mountain Dam, approximately 3.2 miles north of the mouth of the Arroyo at Hahamongna.

This short video is particularly interesting because it was made two years after the devastating Station Fire swept through the upper Arroyo Seco Canyon and documents the post-fire and post-storm (2010 and 2011) conditions. It illustrates Pasadea's water diversion facilities and Brown Mountain Dam.
