Here's a site the wife found with up to date pics of the ramps at Powell. Stateline ramp is already closed :(

Have a trip scheduled there for late July. It looks like it might be real low by then, very little snow runoff is expected this year.
Too bad.
:rolleyes:

Thanks for the site B-Rad502. I've never been to Powell and look forward to going. That info will be real helpful. :)

Looks like it will take a couple of years of really wet weather to fill Powell back up???

Wow We where planing on going out there this summer. Maybe we will wait till next year. Hate to pull 1200 miles and have those conditions. Maybe we will just go to the Keys instead.

Wow, thanks for the post, I was planning on going in late May. May go to Mead instead, may not be much better but at least its way closer. Mark eek!

Sh*t this doesn't look good for the Lake Powell trip I have planned in July :( We'll need some serious snow/rain between now and then if the ramps are to remain open.

I will start going in April and will keep you all posted on how it went. I am most worried about the wait at the ramp if Stateline doesnt open back up. Another problem will be the ice run. Having to go around Antelope island will add some miles to the trip, but the offshore like conditions in that channel will be awesome.
I hate it when new passengers re-configure the middle of my seats into cones. eek!
