Thank you Mad Dog Maddox for repainting the Rock! It looks great!

First official report of the Season!

On a serious note…

Midwinter Report: The snow keeps falling in the Canyon and in our River Basin. Throughout the state all but two River Basins are at or above average, with ours hanging at 113%! Keep doing the powder dance!!

Cheers

Final Official post for the 2021 Season. You may see a random post from time to time, but today marks the end of the regular season. Cheers. (And don’t forget to tip your bartender and/or wait staff!)

Today’s Expected Wx: Sunny, with a high near 88. Breezy, with a west wind 11 to 16 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph.
Tonight: Clear, with a low around 58. Breezy, with a west northwest wind 8 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph.

I keep using the “ish” clause. I think the 1 line is gone entirely. Will have to be repainted. I am of the opinion it is the acidity, and general turbidity of the water post Cameron Peak Fire, that has wiped the rock, but who knows. Anyway… Happy LaSunberday! And the Riv has cleared up quite a bit this morning.

Easier to see the demarkation when the water is as Black as it is. Yup, must have got more rain in the upper canyon than the lower, because the chocolate milk is back. Actually more like Coffee. Happy Labor Day Weekend everybody.
