Part of a free series of walking tours to learn about the history of Montpelier's built environment and its relationship to the Winooski River.
What's the history of Montpelier's dams? Do the dams help prevent floods, or make floods worse? What do dams mean for fish and turtles? What would our rivers look like if the dams were taken out? How would dam removal even happen, anyway? Explore these questions and more with hydrologists and engineers as we visit two downtown dams, learn about how dams impact our community, and hear about steps being taken to remove dams to help keep our community safer during high water.
