Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 18 Posted January 18 The water came up fast at 3:00pm with no horn. Zero warning to anyone. People were down there fishing. All of a sudden - WATER. Below the dam at the gate is a button to speak to an operator - I told the operator and they are making a trouble report..

tjm Posted January 18 Posted January 18 how far down stream can you hear the horn? and how far down do you need to hear it if wading? I came close to having water over my waders once below Beaver, but just put it down to me not hearing it.

I came close to having water over my waders once below Beaver, but just put it down to me not hearing it. At least a mile if not 2. With a north wind I can hear at my condo on table rock and I’m probably 3-4 miles south of it. But definitely far enough to hear it in the main wading area down to point Royale. tjm and Terrierman 1 1

Pointe Royale/Trophy run and above best get a move on. tjm 1 “To those devoid of imagination a blank place on the map is a useless waste; to others, the most valuable part.”--Aldo Leopold
snagged in outlet 3 Posted January 18 Posted January 18 Are there two horns BTW? One at dam and one by point Royale? Or is that an echo. The wind is right you can hear it at the landing easily. tjm 1
Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 18 Author Posted January 18 On the trail above the ramp - is another horn stack - making 2 total.

Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 I was there after the fact - 2 guys had to help a gentleman out of the water A FINE to the Corps WOULD MAKE SENSE.

tjm Posted January 19 Posted January 19 I thought the generation was controlled by SPA rather than USACE? Wouldn't it make more sense to take the Department of Energy to task?
