Cogswell Dam is a rockfill dam on the West Fork of the San Gabriel River in Los Angeles County, California. It is in the San Gabriel Mountains, northeast of Mount Wilson, and within the Angeles National Forest.

It forms Cogswell Reservoir, which has a capacity of {{convert|8969|acre.ft}}.[2]

It serves mainly for flood control in conjunction with San Gabriel Dam and Morris Dam downstream. San Gabriel Dam lies {{Convert|13|mi}} downstream.[3]

Construction

Bonds for the dam's construction were issued in 1924. Construction began March 1932 and was completed April 1934, at a total cost of US$3,127,762.[3]

The rock-fill dam, built by the Los Angeles County Flood Control District, is {{Convert|585|ft}} long, {{Convert|266|ft}} tall (measured from the stream bed), {{Convert|18|ft}} wide at the top, and contains {{Convert|1044945|yd3}} of material. Its crest is {{Convert|2412|ft}} above sea level and {{Convert|27|ft}} above the certified water storage elevation.[2]

The dam rests on crystalline granite bedrock. The buttress is {{Convert|750|ft}} thick at the base, and the height from foundation to crest is {{Convert|285|ft}}. There are concrete cutoff walls and a concrete facing slab on the dam's upstream side.[3]
