About this spot
The North Springfield Dam is a flood control structure and does not generate hydroelectric power. It was built and is managed by the Army Corps of Engineers. It lies across the Black River in Springfield, Vermont. Depending upon the time of year water levels can vary by 70'/21.3m or more. The dam has the capacity to retain higher waters. The dam provides a high point for vista photography as well. Some bird photography is also possible from the dam top. Late September through early October is the peak foliage color season. The hills will be brilliant with reds, yellows and oranges.
