It is interesting to see that this thread has come full circle - from a lake so low... to a lake too high... I noted this evening that the DES chart had the lake toppng the 505 foot make for the first time... but also that the outflow at the dam has been dramatically increased. Most likely in an effort to draw the level down some before the rains that are forecast for this weekend. Our dock was 6" above water when I was there on Sunday and the lake has risen 3" since then... with luck nothing has floated away yet... we will be closing up this weekend and so will put the worries of high water behind us until spring... best of luck to all who still have boats and docks in...
