Of Note- the poly tank that was in the river above Grey Rock Bridge has been mitigated. Before the Riv came up the tank was dislodged and floated downstream about 6/10 of a mile. Thanks to the efforts of Ranger Rob and Schyler King, and a few passerby boaters, it was found and removed from the Riv just above Killer Bridge. Thanks guys!!

Breaking from the diurnal cycle, we are going up as the day goes on. Could be the Wx, which currently is 46.1˚F and DUMPING. We’ve had a touch of hail, but nothing like the eastern plains. Say a couple die hard yakers float by Camp Falbo a minute ago… you go boaters!!

Stay safe. And also, remember we are still in a burn area, and subject to flash flooding out of any of our side canyons and gulches.
