As long as we get some fall rain they should be fine.

Re: Ok I jinxed it the weather is gross
I got lucky because all of our stream restoration work and dam removal work is falling to August - November, and so far flows are nice and low which is important to our work. But it sure has been very dry for a long time. Flows remain above average at least, and that's due to a year and a half of heavy rains. Electro fishing results are showing that we have had two very good spawning years the last two years, so let's hope we have a 3rd straight. After all, we had 7 lousy years, and wild trout numbers plunged for a time.

I can't believe how low the Black?Lamington and the SBRR and my little WTS have gotten the past month. I had really thought all the rain we had the past year would have given the aquifers a charge to handle a dry end of summer.

Right? I thought the same...too bad for us, and this last week of bone dry weather hasn't helped.Razorbacker wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2019 6:15 pmI can't believe how low the Black?Lamington and the SBRR and my little WTS have gotten the past month.

Are we nearing drought conditions? Kind of stinks. Makes you wish for a hurricane to pass through ...maybe just the remnants of one

If there's a blizzard approaching it must be that someone from NJ is going to Montana

Yes, memories of the last time I was there in September...we had to leave the rainbow valley early as 20 inches were coming and they don't plow the road we were on..back to Bozeman.
