Went in at Cross Bay and exited @ Missing Link"




Thanks for the update ISRO. Will be on the Frost River in 2 weeks. By "excellent" water levels did you mean you had more or less than 10 beaver dams to pull over on? "





More, but I am pretty meticulous about my Magic............grin

just returned from Insula via Lake 1 for fishing opener.
Been doing this trip for years, water levels are near normal or a little low but nothing drastic.

tumblehome: "Hey Steve,



Water levels were just a little high last weekend on my trip. And with the several bouts of soaking rain recently along the border I’ll venture to guess that the water is about as high as it will get for the near future.



You gotta go!
Tom"



This post still best sums up the current situation.

Pinetree: "Compared to a normal spring they are lower water guage "


Interesting - other than 12 months ago, I don't see a way to view historical data - is there one? And/or long-term averages?

Anyone have thoughts on the water levels? I am considering a trip next week that might include some river travel - among the possibles, I am considering ones that might get bony in a typical late-summer dry spell.
