wilnobound Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 We were at an Outdoors living show today and talked to a fellow from Field, ON He was telling us water levels on the Temagami system are WAY down. He claims Red Cedar Lake has many "ponds" that used to be bays. Someone else said the forest fire hazard is way high too. Any observations/reports?

Muskieman Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Dangerously LOW!!!! Red Cedar was at least 6 feet low last week.... Temagami River is usually suicide at this time of year but can be walked across in some spots that my kids swim in. If we get no or little rain I would foresee a Fire Ban for opener.

singingdog Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Yes, the Temagami system - along with every other river system that I know of - is very low. A low snowpack, fast early melt and virtually no rain in March and April have reduced levels to record lows on many systems. I have been updating water levels on a whitewater site for about 15 years and have never seen levels like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
