Ice Out



Ice out on Silver Creek and everything is flooded.

As the winter snow pack melts and the frost begins to let out of the ground the water has to go somewhere.


And the creeks, streams, tributaries, ponds and other water features on the landscape are little-able to process the flush of meltwater.




It appears that there is a second volunteer creek running parallel to the south bank of the 'real' Silver Creek.  

If I could successfully navigate a crossing I'd be willing to bet that there is an additional tributary running parallel to the north bank.

This too will pass and I suppose sometime this year the creek will dry-up for a spell.  Until then the volume of water moving across the landscape is impressive!
