Flow into Lake Thompson
« on: July 23, 2010, 05:56:19 AM »
Here are a couple of videos of flow into Lake Thompson.
The first is flow near the park entrance by twin lakes road.

The second is flow from Whitewood under Evergreen Bridge to Lake Thompson.

When you get back the lake will amaze you. You might even want to relocate.

Don't know how close to full it is. If the water is lapping at the bank in front of the cedar house with the full deck, on vantage point it's as full as it's ever been. If there's about 20 feet of beach in that same spot it's about normal.

Lol, only relocate until the end of october. ;) To cold after that. Can't fish much anyway as can't breathe good enough to walk to the lake and sure can't launch or rerieve a boat. Heh, gonna have to get me a Hover round and find a handicap dock next year.

This is what I have for lake levels. I would say for all practical purposes the lake is full again.

I was at my buddy's on Vantage Point from the 14th to the 17th and it was about 8" from the grade at Gooseneck.  we moved his dock in 7' on the 14th from where it was 3 weeks prior.  the public ramp on the NE is closed.  state park ramp is still useable.  on that Friday the water looked like paint,  ugly.
