For those of you who haven't checked - The West Fest is cancelled - too much garbage in the reservoir. Irene gave us a rare Millers but killed the West. Have to see what Fife looks like these days - sans Gap!

If you are on Facebook, Kevin Kodzis has a good video of the Gap - sure looks a lot different:

Wow! That isn't even worthy of being named "The Gap" any longer - that whole road side must have washed in and buried it! Kind of curious now what the whole river from Fife to Shunpike looks like. Maybe we should plan a trip?

Not sure what the level is in this video, but most of the videos I've seen so far have been at higher than normal release levels. Certainly looks like it changed and became easier, but it could look even more different (or more like its old self)at the usual 850cfs.
I read one report that Gap to Shunpike is really, really shallow now and barely passable in most areas. The posted thought a lot of debris got washed down that way and settled, bringing the river bed up. That would be sad if its true.
I would like to get up there at some point this fall just to check it out first hand.
