Used a camera phone. Sorry.

Looks like the Feds will have some public works jobs available

for this summer.

look like the parking lot was totally washed out. what does the old "catch and release are" look like ? im wondering if some of the wholes have been filled in with gravel. also how is the fishing there right now .

makes me sick to my stomach when i see those pics

I've caught a lot of trout above Parker Bend on the deep side along the bluffs. Has that filled in also?

The parking lot has one big rock sittting right in the middle of it. Surprisingly the gravel is still there for the most part. All the trees in along both sides of the river are either flattened or standing at a 45 degree angle, kind of like the trees you see in those old photos of the 1908 explosion at Tunguska. With the water level so high right now, no telling what other sorts of damage/changes there might be in and around Parker Bend.
