I was just there all last week. The water is already over the retaining walls and will rise even higher because the snow hasen't even began to melt. It snowed in the higher elevations on Monday when I was there. The Shoshone Falls are over flowing and they can not release any more water because the main water lines that feed Twin Falls is under the river and there is to much strain on them and could possibly rupture them. The reservoir up river from Burley is 120% full and rising.

Here are a couple pics of the ramp at the golf course and the snow on Monday.

Thanks for the pics Julie. Heard through the grapevine about this last week. We'll see what happens in the next couple of weeks, but it doesn't look good. Our next race may be in Washington

Brad, I don't know exactly. Mark is very concerned that it will not happen. From the looks of things this is just as bad if not worse than in 1997 when they had to cancel the race once before.

Ron Sweetie you are welcome. Just trying to keep my job,, :P :D :D
And you are right the next race might be Black Lake in Olympia, WA.
