    Default TFF Water Levels

    I took a ride to Fisherman's Landing this AM and the level looked to be up a foot or so compared to what it was a couple of weeks ago. All the stumps that were sticking out are now underwater and the shoreline is open about ten yards out. Not sure on the amount of rain we received from last nights storm, but the rivers and streams are full and more rain is predicted for the up coming days.

    The reduction in outflow was very noticeable downstream in Park Falls on my last couple trips. The Chippewa along Hwy. 70 was the same situation - high flows this winter and very low in recent weeks. I think that with all the snow further south, they were probably trying to make sure they had room to hold back water in the north this spring to avoid adding to the flooding downstream.

    Thumbs up Water Level

    Nick, The water level has actually come up .80 feet since your post on Friday, April 8th, 2011, which translates to 9.6 inches. This is definitely a good thing!
