Mark Twain Lake

This last Sunday, Rich, Jane, Matt and I made a road trip to Mark Twain Lake to see the flood waters and to see the dam. It was amazing!!!

Water coming out of the dam.


Looking down the Salt River

Here is some video I was able to shoot with my camera. It was a really neat sight.

Looking straight down into the water

Rich was at the lake the previous Tuesday and he said the water was at 640. 5 days later, the level was down 5 feet.
A far view of the dam.

While at the lake, we stopped by to see the water that was standing on the gravel road that my dad's family owns property on. It was unreal the water that was over the road. You couldn't even see the other side of the gravel!!

A look at where the water was and where it currently sits.

Since we were pulling a trailer behind the pick-up, we took my Aunt's car to see the water. Grace rode along with us and even drove!! All Matt did was the gas pedal and the brake pedal. She did the rest and kept it on the road. There were only a few times we had to tell her to keep it on the gravel.
