It may be my autism, but as a kid, I was always fascinated by infrastructure, particularly power lines. My dad once drove me down an Edison Road up to the top of a mountain just to see where the power line went. We had to stop at the top. I could see my neighborhood from a view that I had never seen before. Today I would consider it beautiful. Back then it was weird!

I had a fascination with how different the poles looked and how the equipment was mounted. It seemed like no two pylons were alike.

Based on this map, it looks like all of our power comes from hydroelectric.

I love this site. I just wish it was more complete. There are some major water and natural gas pipelines that aren't recorded. Maybe in time.

Yep and its why some of us look for careers that let us work in rarely seen places, and devices most dont know exist, but are imperative to modern society.
