Poudre River Flood

They have some roads closed off on the north side of town.  The Poudre River is over its banks in areas due to the melting snow in the mountains and recent rain.   The trail is only a few miles away so Cassie and I figured we would jump on our bikes and see if we could get into trouble. 


East meets west, but the road is Closed.

We actually didn’t encounter too much resistance to jump the signs and get a closer look.  This is a small ditch, and it took out the trail completely.


Like I said, it used to be a small ditch.


You can see where its widening out

There are all kinds of news reports going on talking about the flooding.  Its only a few miles from our house too!  But all is dry here, so all in all a nice night to lay in the grass and watch the chickens and pets in the lawn.
