civilized ku # 964 ~ 100+ year high water

Lake Champlain ~ Peru, NY - in the Adirondack PARK • click to embiggenLake Champlain has been at a record high water level. Although, as pictured here today, the level has dropped considerably, albeit no where near normal.

For an idea how high the water has been, notice the line of debris on the grass by the kayak. The log just beyond that is also not a normal feature. However, it is representative of what is floating around all over the lake - mostly just below the surface so, needless to say, boating is a hazardous activity.
