Hours after Hoover left the dam site, one hundred idling trucks loaded with broken rock lined up along the road leading to the bridge near the upstream portals of the diversion tunnels. All day and night, the trucks dumped their loads, finally turning the Colorado out of its ancestral bed at about 7:30 a.m. on November 14, 1932. Rerouting the Colorado represented the first major step in building the dam, but the riverbed next must be de-watered, excavated through tons of silt down to bedrock, and protected from the Colorado's notorious spring floods. One and one-half miles of the riverbed crawled with crews as work began on two massive cofferdams to bracket the site where the dam would eventually stand. |
