Dam project reveals remnants of California ghost town
Water levels of California's Lexington Reservoir have been lowered so construction crews can finish rebuilding a dam outlet system. As a result, remnants of two ghost towns, including a concrete bridge built in 1926, are now visible along the western edges of the lake. The project is expected to be finished next September.
