Text Appearing Before Image:
The famous Water Temple at Sunol draws innumerable sightseers. Here may be seen the meeting of the waters—from Calaveras Reservoir, the Sunol infiltration galleries, and the Livermore Valley wells. Here these waters mingleand start on the long flow down Niles Canyon, across the Bay, and up the San Mateo peninsula to San Francisco.
Text Appearing After Image:
Beneath the floor of beautiful Sunol Valley are the infiltration galleries that gather the percolating waters of thegravel beds and deliver them to the Water Temple for the supply of San Francisco. This underground source is anatural reservoir and filter; the water is held back and forced into the galleries by Sunol Dam on Alameda Creek. SAN FRANCISCO WATER
