| Water seen on Loop Road about 4 miles from 40 Mile Bend looking West (in December 2017) |
Thanks to this summer’s bountiful rains:
Water overtopped Loop Road (east of Pinecrest) for over 5 months.

| Duration (in months per year) that Loop Road east of Pinecrest overtops, 1990-present |
That sets a new “all time” record for the swamp (i.e. road)!
