And it's a big one too (http://www.redding.com/story/news/2017/02/21/water-flows-over-glory-hole-whiskeytown-lake/98233462/)

People visited the Glory Hole at Whiskeytown Lake on Tuesday to capture photos of what is a fairly rare event — water flowing into the giant concrete cavity.

Whiskeytown National Recreation Area Superintendent Jim Milestone said water flows down the Glory Hole only about once every five years.

Water spilled down the 24-foot-diameter hole last year during heavy rains, but before that it had been many years since it was used to prevent water from going over the dam.

Binny Bawa of Redding said she saw a video of water going over the spillway on the Weather Channel, so she packed her sons up in the family van and drove up to Whiskeytown to witness the event.
