The original thread was about the lowering of the lake.
To that end we took a ride all the way up into Green's Basin today from Gilford via Alton Bay, a round about trip since we visited people Alton Bay first, but well worth the ride as it was so smooth on the lake today. A little cool when under way due to so many clouds vs sun. I posted a few Pics on the Photo Post.
The lake is noticeably lower but not so much that a 22' Cuddy could not negotiate the trip. Never hit anything or came close to it. I used the depth sounder a few times but was able to negotaite quite nicely using markers. Many of the rocks are visable which makes it easier to know where some of the bad spots are. This was our first trip all the way into Green's Basin and we really enjoyed it.
In Alton bay I could hear, loud, but only barely see the water rushing down the Cascades Falls so I would assume that there are many streams and brooks putting water into the lake pretty fast. I tried to get a photo of the Cascades but could not get anything reasonable.
See photo post.
The lake is reported to be at 10.08" below full lake level and flowing out at 766 CFPS. The water temp is down to 66 F.
