Is the river still up? The Red Deer has come up the last week. We had some rain, and I'm thinking that they must be letting some out of Dixon dam. |

We've got 2" rain the last 24hrs. The Red Deer looks to be up about 4' at Emerson bridge. Should be lots of water runnin' in the Oldman by the weekend. More rain to come. Bringin' my water wings and rubber ducky! |

Do we need to go on the Oldman? Or can we just run the ditches and fields? A good run right now would be hwy41 from the #1 to the border! Its closed to vehicle traffic. ;D |
