Mountain Dell Dam, Arch dam in Salt Lake County, United States.

Mountain Dell Dam features a curved concrete structure that efficiently distributes water pressure across its surface while holding back the reservoir waters.

The dam was constructed during the 1950s as part of a large water management project to support the expanding population of Salt Lake Valley.

This engineering structure earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places for its representation of mid-20th century water infrastructure development.

Visitors can reach the dam site through paved roads and participate in outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, and wildlife observation around the reservoir.

The structure combines engineering efficiency with historical preservation status, maintaining its original architectural elements while serving modern water management needs.
