A.C.I.D. Flume Bridge

The Milky Way over the Anderson-Cottonwood Irrigation District canal this morning at 4 a.m. This 8' X 5' elevated section -- built in 1918 -- is part of a 35 mile long canal that can take a maximum of 125,000 acre feet of water per year from the Sacramento River in Redding for distribution to agricultural users.
