With the receding waters, all sorts of things are being resurfaced. The thread about the sunk boat in the narrows got me thinking about the subject.
This all started a few years back with the old gravel pits and quarry becoming exposed (areas that hadn't seen the light of day since Hoover Dam was built). Most recently, Overton Arm, losing the marina, and exposing the old town etc. I even read somewhere that Park officials were doing inspections by plane to map out new emerging hazards.
Now we have people finding all sorts of "sunken treasure" along the shoreline of what would have been deep water 25 years ago.
So, post the pics? What have we all found? This goes for Powell too......:D
The receding water sucks, but we might as well have some fun with it, as well as bring pictures to light that the water really is going down, so conserve water, for crying out loud! :mad:
