Guntersville Dam, North; spillways, locks, and fishing area (before the recent heavy rains)
The same view after the rains; more than half the upper walkway is under water (photo on left) and all of the lower walkway(photo on right) where we often fish is submerged
Spillways open; south side of dam after recent flooding
Submerged guard rail on south side of dam with herons
Guntersville Reservoir above the dam
Part of Lake Guntersville with waterfowl; recreation area near Guntersville city limits
Sun on the lake below the dam
Those are some really good photos and nice to remember what it was like before all this weather catastrophe hit this entire area, between the tornadoes and flooding around here, it sure is nice to see the bright sunshine again. Very pretty view on your last shot too.
ReplyDeleteSmile today. :)
Thanks, Gloria. It was amazing to see our fishing spot so far under water. Of course, the water at our old favorite Ditto Landing here in Huntsville was really high, too. The spillways at the dams are really neat with the water rushing over them. The day before this trek we had driven over to Wilson Dam. That was pretty awesome. I'll be posting photos of that soon.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Melissa. That weather sounds awesome.
