Sioux Narrows

Don and I drove to Sioux Narrows to visit Donna and Craig for a couple of days. We has beautiful dock weather and went out on the pontoon boat each afternoon. Blissful!!

The water in the Lake of the Woods is higher than I have ever seen. About 3 feet more than usual!!  Image three feet more water over that baste area. That is a lot of water!!  Many boathouses are submerged and damaged. We saw one boathouse that had totally collapsed. Donna and Craig's is underwater, but is withstanding the water logging.

Sioux Narrows Icon - the wooden bridge, now rebuilt out of steel, but kept the wooden bridge look.

This boat dock is destroyed by the high water level. 

Donna and Craig's cottage, boat house and floating dock.

The boat house is under about 3 feet of water!
