High Temps in the High Country Causes Flooding
My wife and I spent the weekend in Steamboat Springs Colorado. We got a nice little cabin right on the Yampa River at Steamboat Springs Campground. On the first day the temperature shot up over 90 degrees. The rapid snow melt caused so much run-off on the first night there the water rose about 6 inches causing flooding all around our cabin. All across the state the rivers and creeks are unseasonably high.
The water in Steamboat Springs Campground rose even higher on the second night but we were never in any danger. Actually, it was kind of romantic to have our own private cabin island. The outdoor fireplace was completely flooded and the water reached above the first step to the cabin.The staff even built us a bridge so we could get to the cabin without getting wet. We really enjoyed ourself and stayed for three days and two nights.

Thanks for sharing,

John, it is that time of year, here locally we have been lucky so far! I know up in Salt Lake they are really having issues with the run off water!
Great post John!
