[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 97509, member: 704"] Well if you consider my cousins field, right along channel A, blowing away in the wind while the lake floods it makes you scratch your head. This lake has been much higher before any drainage occurred. However what we consider high water in realits is nothing compared to high precipitation weather patterns of the past. Looking at geographic evidence of weather patterns we have seen nothing yet. People don't live long enough to see longer term weather shifts. That makes people think we areally in a wet period. Within the past 100 years that would be correct. Drainage with the precipitation we have had contributed greatly. It's just masked by a short term wet period, but within a longer term dry period. There is geological evidence that we are near the end of a 400 year extremely dry period. (Personal communication with geologists out of Denver and PhD student out of the University of Minnesota).
