Beautiful scenery.... would be interesting to see the reservoir when it’s full in the spring

[@Mad9977]

on that picture you can also see the smaller old dam =)

[@ursuss100]

Actually, the Dix Lake (Lac des Dix) - that's the name of the reservoir - is already mostly empty in Spring. It refills during late spring and summer due to snowmelt and reaches capacity around late September or early October, then the water is used during autumn and winter to produce electricity. The old dam (Première Dixence, or Petite Dixence by analogy with the actual Grande Dixence) was only 83 metres high, so when the lake is full its crest lies under 200 metres of water !
