Kleinschmidt Associates has worked with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) on a number of projects related to the 285-ft-tall Lower Baker Dam in Skagit County, Wash. The firm was part of the design team on a $35-million project to upgrade a fish passage system overseen by Skanska and completed in 2010. Kleinschmidt continues working with the utility as part of its dam relicensing program.

Photographer Jared Brown took the image using a Google Pixel 6 phone while on a tour of the dam facilities in July. “I really wanted to capture the majestic feeling of this dam in particular,” he says. “I really enjoy the cool-toned color scheme and feeling that the dam seems to be hidden amongst the North Cascades forest.”
