I rode solo today because Weds is Judy's sewing day, it was a beautiful day for a ride
The Rock is up from the recent storms, but hasn't peaked yet.
The lake above the dam.
Water spilling over the gate at the Guard Lock, I have never seen this before.
The condition of the path is deplorable after the recent storms, but the general lack of maintenance is get worse.
West of Buehl Road the weds haven't been mowed all year and are starting to grow across the path, no wonder use of the path is declining.
I see in the future the complete closure of the path, not just sections that are closed now. If the culvert south of Rock Falls that is leaking so bad as to more water on the west side of the canal than is in the creek on the east side collapses, the canal will go dry.
With out money and manpower being directed to the Hennepin Canal, the future is bleak and our area will lose a valuable resource.
