Source of water emanating from left side wall, uphill from weep hole? Also note whitewater on the right.

I wonder if it’s feasible to use some of the recovered rock debris from below to shore up and add slope to the area under the leading edge of the remaining spillway to give it some chance of survival through the melt season. Otherwise, they’ll surely lose more of it when the next big release comes, and it will threaten the transmission line tower and add more debris. I was thinking of using rock, then grouting/hardening it to provide shoring and a sloping surface to catch the water as it falls.

(It does appear from other photos that they transferred line positions on the towers. There were previously 2 circuits on the lower tower and one on the upper, but a recent picture showed 2 on the upper tower and none on the lower tower).
