The park manager just informed the NFSA that the above parks are closed until further notice.

This basically means Little River is gone, too, from what I recall.

Forgive my Ignorance, is this just SOP, or something bigger this time?

I would imagine Madison and Lafayette are pretty well flooded. Peacock isn't but I can't imagine the roads are in very passable shape.

I guess that answers the July 7th Social question.

The closures could be because the ground is so muddy and saturated that the roads and walkways are impassable. If you can't safely get to the cave who knows or cares what the cave conditions are.

I have seen the parking lot at little river flooded, sure the approaching road is paved, and we could navigate our way to the cave, but the park was still closed.

Jill just posted a picture of Little River in the "current conditions" thread.

The good news... the cave is still flowing, has not reversed yet. And the parking lot is still above water (as of this morning).

She's holding her own, but for how long? There is no doubt more flow pumping to hold the river back like that.

The gauge at branford is up to 9' from 3' three days ago. Still Climbing!

Help. I have a low profile vehicle. I have been stranded in Obrien due to the dirt road being flooded and to deep for my Equinox. That has improved considerably. I need to know if I can get from Branford to I-75 safely in the morning. Anyone been that way today?????
