Water levels: You'll notice the level is low for this time of year. The reason is a dock that is stuck in the dam on our outbound (Crowe) side. CVCA is doing their best to release the dock and return levels to normal.

Water levels remain high on Belmont but have likely peaked. Flow rates in our rivers are 20x summer flow at the Crowe outlet. Rock marker deployment will likely need to be delayed slightly until levels come down.

Message us with lost and found items and we will re-post here and on our Instagram feed.
