Black Volta River at the Bui Dam site, 1994

A water level measurement pole (bottom right) at the base of a path through riparian forest leading to the Bui Dam site on the Black Volta River. These measuring devices were placed when Soviet engineers began laying groundwork for the dam under Nkrumah's government. On the other side of the river is the mountainside against which the dam was later built, beginning in 2008. View towards north. Bui Dam site, 1994.
