All of the reservoirs and full. There are several mud slides above us. It is up to us whether we want to leave on a voluntary basis or not. I find this weather fascinating and would not want to miss it. I feel safe. And I do not personally feel that there is a problem. The Mountain Cove property was reengineered to handle a so called "hundred year" flood. They even redirected the river when designing this property. The only potential probem that I see in regard to flooding would be if the dams broke. And there are three of them up there. I could be wrong but I would guess that the chances of all three dams breaking are pretty slim.

My wife and I tried to drive down earlier, and the road was closed due to the rock and mud slides, took some really cool pics. I heard about a voluntary evacuation, but nothing formal. I will be worried if the river rises another 5-6ft which would mean a deluge of rain for more than 48 hours. We have seen alot of rain in the past 12 hours and the damn flood gates are open to keep the water flowing and help prevent some flooding.
If I hear anything, I will provide more input.
Thanks, Chris Rock Springs Way
