Barbee and Tippy Closed by the DNR

The DNR has closed off Tippy and the Barbee Chain to all boating as of today.

Water is still very high and waters are in horrible shape....

Again...I really hate mother nature at times!

I was out in my kayak looking for my paddle boat and noticed all the lakes sooooooooo stained!!! Last year it took a month for the water to go down. I hope it goes faster this time.

Here is the gauge for the river below Oswego Lake:

These levels are now falling, but very slowly. Hopefully, very little rain falls today and tonight.
