River/creek Status

[DonAndersen]

Came back from BC today and crossed a number of streams and rivers.

 

Here is a rundown:

 

Bow River @ Cochrane – clear

 

Dog Pound Creek – off-color

 

Little Red Deer – dirty c/w ice jams

 

Bearberry Creek – dirty

 

James River – very dirty

 

South Raven River – off-color

 

Clearwater River @ Highway #54/22 junction – clear

 

Mud Creek – off-color

 

Prairie Creek – ice covered.

 

Clearwater River @ Highway #752 bridge – ice covered.

 

Note: lots of fresh snow will increase run-offs dramatically. Streams that are clean today may not be clean for very long if the weather reports are right!

 

And if you decide to come up our way, gas prices are $0.10/liter cheaper than Calgary.

 

Whooppee!!!
