they were releasing more water out of carlos than was going in now it is slightly the other way with a little bit more going in than is being drained out

pray for rain and snow on the east side?

Happened to be in the area and snapped a few pics.  If they are in order, the first pic is from the end of the west ramp.  The remaining pics are from above, starting at the end of the ramp and panning south and east.

Very cool pics Philbie, Thx!  It appears to me from the above pics that the lake has more water in it now as compaired to when we were shore launching earlier this spring.  If I remember correctly, we were launching in the area of the last two pics.

they are already releasing water from carlos for down stream spring irrigation 118cfs there is water coming into the lake but not much more than is being pulled out, you should see how well the gila river flows up above safford and with all the irrigation diversion dams up that way by the time the water is down to bylas right at the reservation the flows are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy down. With the lake so low right now in those pictures the irrigation people will pull it back down to the minimum pool early in the summer.

I just noticed that on their web site the lake is now open as of 02/08/13 It says call for details and list a number. I am stuck at work so could some body call and get the low down?  :blob1:

I was wondering if and when someone was going to drive up and take some pics. Thanks for the info. Still looks way down to me. Can't believe the amount of growth at the end of Soda, and where we were shore launching.
