That's great news.
Can't wait for Lake Powell & Lake Mead to be full.

I've been watching ours as well. It's been raining in the valley for nearly a week, and snowing up on the mountain.

I see they just started increasing flow from Jackson Lake yesterday. It'll take more than 24 hours for that water to reach Alpine WY.

I cant wait for Lake Powell to fill up again.
Think I might be headed up again this year for a few days on my sisters houseboat. Sure makes life easier when trying to navigate the channels when there's lots of water in them.
About 10 years ago I took a bunch of Varsity Scouts there. I used one of our company house boats. The water was very very low. I was out in the middle of nowhere in a bay. The nearest shore line was at least 1/2 mile away. And I had a prop strike on a some sort of rock. Everywhere else in that area the water was approximately 50' deep.
The worse part about it was that the boat had just came out of the shop 2 days earlier for the same exact thing.
