Clinton lake levels are on the rise. Sunday morning the boat ramp docks 1&2 where under water and the marina ramp docks where close. The C.O.E. or state parks pulled the docks up the ramp way too high to use.
I saw several boaters arrive Monday morning, not sure how they would unload their boats. The lake is just getting into the marina ramp parking lot.
Toronto is and Fall river are reported to be about 24 to 26 ft high which is over 80% of flood pool full! If anyone has pictures of those please share, that scary.
I launched from that ramp Sunday afternoon and Monday morning. There was a long log on the left side of the ramp you could pull up on if there's no wind. Got off yesterday around noon. Hard wind. Parked in the trees on the right side. That ramp was packed with rigs lined up at noon.Quote:

Are any of the ramps open?

Ramp in the pic and ramps by the marina are open. But no docks or good places to land really, logs are softer then rocks, mostly rocks. Some of the noon ski boat rush was swimming out to boats. Some holding keys and cell phones out of the water in one hand while they swam. Bit of a show.Quote:

I launched on the federal side I think ramp # 5. Had to wade a little to get to dock.Quote:

I'm sure glad I don't have to worry about the boat ramps, just about the marina parking lot.
Went and checked out the dam at Redmond today. Official level is .5 ft shy of the top of flood pool. It was lapping over the top of the gates with the wind. All the gates are open and there is more water flowing out of it than I have seen in a long time. Hope you have no plans on hunting Flint Hills this fall. Can't even see the tops of most of their levees.Quote:
