title: [Lake Mineral Wells, 1 of 4, Flood Stage]
date: 1941~
language: No Language
description: Lake Mineral Wells, Mineral Wells State Park, is shown here in
 flood stage.  Heavy spring rains dumped 7.2 inches of rainfall into the area
 over a violent week-end in March 1976, resulting in a flood that claimed 24
 lives in fire- and water-related incidents.  The dam is visible on the far
 left side of the picture, with water flowing over it.  Flood waters cover a
 large part of the land between the photographer and the dam.  The public boat
 ramp and fueling station are on the peninsula at the far right side of the
 picture.  The picture is part of a group of films labeled "1977", but related
 news articles give the date as March of the previous year.
