A couple of months ago I posted a photo-report on how the drought has affected Kanopolis Lake; it’s a matter of some concern. For the previous link, right mouse click, and choose: open in new window, to compare the 2 sets of images side-by-side.
I had occasion to take some more photos a few days ago. Despite a few inches of rain within the past week, the situation continutes to deteriorate. As the following photos show, the north end of the lake, near Horsethief Canyon, more resembles a pasture than a lake. These photos are similar, but exactly the same composition as those taken in April; close enough to see how badly we need a lot of rain. As usual, you can click on any of the images below to select from different viewing sizes.
