The Glory Hole at Lake Berryessa (or, more properly called the Morning Glory Spillway) is located at the south end of the lake, and serves as the overflow route when the lake fills up.
It is the largest spillway of its kind in the world, measuring 72 feet across.

Unfortunately, due to continued drought conditions, water has not spilled into it since May of 2006…but it's quite a sight when it does.
I pass this way every time I go to/from the Sacramento Airport.
