that aerial photo is something, you can really see what is happening so much more from the air. I posted some drone pictures of the flooding of Cottonwood Creek up in my hometown of Chester about a month ago https://steemit.com/nature/@bigskycustoms/floodwaters. It is pretty amazing to see. I read in the GF Tribune today that the Clark Fork hasn't been this high in 100 years. I am also a geological engineer, so nice explanation of the aquifer situation. That will actually affect a lot more of the homes in Missoula.
wow, this looks terrible too ! I didn't even hear about that! It is pretty amazing when you think about it just in terms of what nature is all about. And yeah the aquifer part boggles my mind , too. THis area is a lot more watery than I tend to realize.
Hey I just came across a brand new Montana Steemian named @dustin-hutson . He might not even know if he is being tagged yet, he is so new :) .. Anyway I think he is closer to your area? You could drop over to his intro post and say hi!
Thanks for the heads up, I commented to welcome him and let him know I’m a Montanan also. Who was the Steemite you met in Bozeman? Was it pretty.dorky?
