Spring Valley Salt Run Dam, Granville Ohio


Spring Valley Pool Salt Run Dam, Granville Ohio in USA


This dam of the Salt Run creek in Granville Ohio severed as a water reserve for the maintenance and filling of the Spring Valley pool. The pool opened in 1933 and was closed in 2005. The area has since been converted into a nature preserve. The creek was probably named Salt Run in the 1820’s, when a spring or deer lick was discovered to contain high salinity. After taking this panorama, I found a prehistoric knife at the base of the tripod! Can you find this ancient artifact in the panorama? Hint the knife is made from yellow/orange colored flint probably from Flint Ridge.
