JCM 9,130 #1 Posted December 2, 2020 This year has been the worst year we have seen regarding the water level in the Brook that runs through the property since we have been here the last 12 years. In September for the Meet & Greet there was no water in it and now after last night it looks like this. However we did lose power from 1.30 am until 9 this morning and I am sure the wind had something to do with it. For those that were here in September remember driving over the very large rocks that we cross over to get to the other side and that is where the first pic is taken. The highest water levels are in the spring with runoff from snow melt and my favorite time to watch and listen from the camp porch. 11 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,790 #2 Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Sure is purdy. Looks like the love shack is a distance away? No chance of fish in I would guess. Edited December 2, 2020 by WHX24 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JCM 9,130 #4 Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) I was told back in the old days by my neighbor there were fish in there. And there is another brook that is stocked with fish about a 15 to 20 minute walk just up over the ridge behind us. @WHX24 Love shack is 85' away, code requirement was 75'.

Even the little cute ones are fun to catch. Wadsworth brook is out in our forest behind our land. Some in there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,790 #6 Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Damn codes! Looks further than 85 .... I judge distances by how many 20 ft lenghts of pvc is it .... I do need to retire! Edited December 2, 2020 by WHX24 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,647 #7 Posted December 2, 2020 This is the only pictures I have of mine. It runs year around from a spring . It was level full a couple weeks ago after the rain we had. Back in the 40"s and 50's when I was growing up It could be full from and after noon thunder storm. I just have 200 ft. across the back where thee small branches run together. Then It runs 15' or so South of my property line. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's ok bubba. I kid you not. I look at distances by how many "truck lengths" it is. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
