Ice jam at Main St. bridge • click on photo to embiggen itI was typing away on today's entry when I got a phone call from Aaron. He told me to get my a-- out the door and check out the ice jam on Main Street. His assistant, who goes through the Forks on his way to work, told him about it.
Ice jams at bridges is a common spring-thaw thing 'round these parts. The odd thing about this one is that it rarely happens at this bridge (on the West Branch of the Au Sable)- it alwayshappens at the bridge on the other end of Main Street (on the East Branch of the Au Sable).
The other odd thing is that the ice jam is on both sides of the bridge. Should get interesting - it's going to rain all day and it's warm so melting snow is going to add to the mix.
The funny thing is that I was going to write about things emerging from under their wintery blanket (with photo to match). I'll do that tomorrow. Today, it's all about submerging.
