I hate to be a "wet blanket", but check this out. It is the reporting station just up river from Madison.

Does not look promising.....
Darn. Me and I were hoping to dive it next week.
(Yes, that's what I meant.)
+1 (Darn) have plans to be there on Saturday 3/20 :cry:
It might last that long, don't give up yet. Keep an eye on here, and the state parks page.Quote:

Had a question on the river levels, what or where is the 0ft mark that the river levels refer to?
0 = sea level. That is why the upstream gauges have higher levels then downstream gauges.Quote:
