RMA Poudre Rock Report

Next Round of Problems from High Park Fire

By

We have Flash Flood warnings and experiences throughout the Poudre Canyon today, tonight and through Monday. I don’t know if the Road/Riv will be open tomorrow, it was closed for a spell today. The river is definitely up and BLACK tonight. I have not put eyes on the rock, but I am going to guess 2.7.

We have had two major mud slides in Poudre Park and expecting more. If you do come up here, use extreme caution. Again, I am not sure if the road will be open tomorrow, and if things go south…again… I won’t have time to report on the PRR.

Stay safe. Stay Smart.
