Thursday, August 16, 2007
Located in northern California, the Monticello Dam's is the largest morning glory spillway all over the world. This funnel-shaped outlet, allows water to bypass the dam when it reaches capacity, as it swallows a rate of 48,400 cubic feet per second (1370 m³/s).

On Google Maps use this link:
http://maps.google.com/maps?t=h&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=38.513167,-122.10469&spn=0.010326,0.019312&z=16
For Google Earth, you can actually just put in "Monticello Dam, CA, US" and it will take you right to it. The spillway hole doesn't have much detail to it but it's there.
