Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Flooding---big time in Montana

I am curious how the Madison is flowing. It comes out of Yellowstone too. I used to spend the summer near Hebken Lake and fished the Madison. One June the road near earthquake lake was close to being destroyed and Slide Inn was worried.

Not so long ago, as us old farts say.

Had 2-3" in most of central/southern Alberta and Sask the last couple of days, it was needed. There is actually more sheet water in the fields now than at snowmelt. Today and for a few more days is on and off rain, it is welcome here. Only thing with today so far is the wind, 40-50mph stuff.
That helicopter vid is deja vu of last fall in BC around Merritt-Ashcroft area, and the Hope-Princeton, and Coquahalla, Fraser Canyon was washed out the same way, which all wound up in lower mainland and flooded a good portion of it and northern Wash.

My niece Heidi, has worked at Yellowstone 20+ years.

She rented the house that went into the River at Gardiner 2 weeks ago.

She was able to get some things out, bikes , misc items. However , she still lost a lot of items.

Freezer full in the garage. Nice furniture, appliances, etc.

So sorry for your niece Cisco, along with everyone else affected.

Shame that isn’t going into Lake Powell

When I have travelled around out west I noticed people built really close to streams. Here if they did that in the hills their roof would be under after a big rain.
