During the late 1970s, several telegraph fixtures were still evident in Waterton Canyon. There were many stumps of telegraph poles. Some steel poles were still perched atop rock outcrops, including wooden cross beams.
This photo showing the Deansbury Bridge telegraph fixture was taken during the spring of 1978. This bridge was removed and much of canyon flooded after the construction of the Strontia Springs Dam in 1979.
