High water in Silver Falls

High water in Silver Falls
A wet spring and heavy rains has left both of our offices and many of the lodges/cabins struggling with high water. Notice the tires of the stationary dock just peaking out of the water. These are the docks that are usually used to load right into the otter door with the fork lift. Platforms are needed just to get to the planes!!
