Removing the hydraulic turbines from Livermore Gorge
« on: June 28, 2011, 01:37:30 PM »
Hi Guys:

Many years ago I removed the Rodney Hunt hydraulic turbines from Livermore Falls gorge. I brought my trusty Pentax K-1000 with me and recoreded the event. It was quite the adventure. We had crawler cranes, thermite bars and cable rigging systems all going at once!!! Please see the following link for a photo essay of the project:

I hope you enjoy essay.

Sincerely,
