I’ve lost track of where Moonbeam Canyon is. Is that below the Emergency Spillway?

I named it that a month ago when we were trying to figure out both how deep it was and how it would ever be backfilled to allow the main spillway to span it. I thought about it and decided that in California’s current administration there could only be one appropriate backfill that was massive enough to stay in place — Bullet Trains — and only one name for the gapping maw — Moonbeam Canyon.
