The lake elevation has risen 23 feet in the last week. Storage is at 1,110,990-acre feet. We went from an elevation of 6021 to an elevation of 6044 and are still rising. This has created complications with the Marina providing public access to both Pine and Sims. Pine is currently open with no issues as of right now. Sims is still being adjusted and anticipated to open back up later this week. Both ramps are accessible, but they have significant run-off damage on the sides where it is deteriorating and undercutting the concrete. The lake has debris being washed down from the floods up the San Juan River. The lake is also murky due to the flood water. Water on the river is also murky.
