Any takers?  You could probably get some pretty sweet air off the rooster tail at the bottom.

I remember a few years ago when the fish ladder was a water fall!

Headed out there yesterday too. Impressive.


I hope Texas Dave's house didn't get wet... I would guess his neighbors closer to the river did... I heard that Sunday AM the stilly briefly went over Jordan Road.

The only thing that could make that video better is a kayaker going down the meat of it. If someone does run it I want to see a vid :)

No Joe, we didn't get wet.  It was close though.  I spent last night cleaning silt out of my driveway.  The front of my neighborhood wasn't so lucky though.  There was still 1.5 feet of water across the road 5 minutes ago when I drove through.  Watch for my truck on the news - they were filming me go through.

That's good, Dave. I noticed the next pic on that like (#6) shows the house behind the take-out for Canyon Creek off Jordan Road. You can see in the pic the trees that line the back end of the parking area for the take-out which is under several feet of water.

I wonder what that wedged tree at the canyon creek bridge looks like today, if you could boat under it.
More water, please.

Who wants to bet that Robe is going to have some new changes?

Here's to hoping that the middle boof is back and the flood recycled some garbage!

Felt like I was on the mushrooms for the first minute of your video there up4air.
 
James, so if the middle boof is back in at LS, then that means that boulder is directly below it....or further downstream.  Eitherway, I'm sure there are going to be a few changes to Robe.  Hopefully for the better.

It goes...
if you don't mind reaching your take out in about a thousand litte pieces!
 
Oh Robe? this little surge of water won't change a thing !!
actually I'm wondering if even the Robe Gnomes could hold on up in there! I hope the 'lil buggers ain't washed out to the sound!
 
Maybe Landslide will look more appealing? A sneak route at least perhaps?
A new route down the Far Right at LS?
Garbage removal?
I bet Dolly Parton's lovely cleavage is gone
 
Faceplant get a facelift?
