When Mother Nature wants the landscape changed she does so in dramatic fashion. I’m in Montana for the summer and spend much time in all of the surrounding towns around Yellowstone. I will visit to help support all I can.
Nice to see the river has somewhat receded. Still a lot of water flowing. When living and working in Cooke City, I drove this route many times on my way to Livingston. Thank you for sharing!
I still cannot believe I was just there, three weeks ago, I stay at a hotel in Gardiner, MT walking distance to the northern entrance. It was so beautiful but I didn't get to see as much as I would like (due to an illness) and I was hoping to go back next year.
I was so lucky went to Yellowstone National Park on weekend of June 4th 5th 6th a week ahead before flooding and pass by Montana too. Also made alot of videos from Yellowstone National Park too!
Unbelievable. Traveled through the NE entrance all the way over to Old Faithful last October. Beautiful scenery. I guess even the Earth wants to rearrange things once in a while. We'll adjust.
Hello this is Mary Ann from South Jersey I was at Yellowstone Old faithful in 2017 it was beautiful and the gift shop was beautiful it's a peaceful feeling to know that no one lost their life such devastation was wondering and praying for the wildlife amen knowing mother nature is in charge
I'm glad the river has receded and the clean up can begin I will pray for those who lost their homes to find new accommodations as soon as they can and that they stay safe
Thank You for sharing your video, it's very well done. Makes us realize that Mother Nature is not to be messed with. Pray all humans and animals are safe❤🙏
@@tangents6299 the first part was credible but manmade religions and manmade Climate changes are happening. Probably FOX reports "geoengineering" is the cause of "bad weather"?
Should have prayed to god BEFORE he flooded the place. Prayers do nothing. Sadly you only mentioned property,buildings, and money generating objects. Nothings more spiritual than praying for the well being of things that make money

Yeah, that's two days after the flood peak. This flow was enough to destroy a 102 year old steel truss bridge and take out parts of a newish concrete span too. When the hydrologists evaluate these flood flows they are likely going to determine these types of flows haven't happened since the Pleistocene ice age. ( no evidence of flood terraces above this flood)
@@christophervandenberg4830 yabba Jabba smabba, look the same infrastructure in Yosemite area couple years ago merced river and other Orville dam ect, was also destroyed in a 100 yr-500 storm .I think most pioneers recognizes that its going to happen again naturally, you know the saying Build On A Rock not the Sand. I personally study WATER SHED RIVER FORMATIONS.
Did anyone ever find the house that floated down stream? Water is so powerful. This river is still flooding, just not as much as before. Great video!!!
My wife (RIP) and I used to live in Red Lodge and I am just floored by watching the drone pictures fly over Rock Creek and the devastation on that side of town…most of the town is OK but still there’s a big swath of it just got creamed, excuse me,flooded…
The old Yellowstone Trail? Would that be the Old Gardner road, from Mammoth to Gardner? Walked that back in 85 and 91. When I worked in Mammoth in 85,and visited in 91. I suspect with just a bit of work, it could be quite passable.
I walked it in 1982. It doesn’t cross the River does it? It’s what the call the old stagecoach road. OFI 1982, Canyon 1983, honeymoon 1990, then together we went back in 1991 and worked Canyon and Lake bartending and last was 1992 bartending OFI. Awesome experience. Check out parkjunkie on TH-cam. He is working in lake so he has daily videos and updates

Check the cost of purchasing a house or renting in Montana because the prices have soared beyond reason. The house across the street from me on a small lot with no privacy was asking $540,000 and had a bidding war. It sold for $640,000 in one week. The same thing happened with the house at the corner. They both sold in one week. The realtors run clients through the houses for a week and then everyone puts in their bid; highest bidder wins. They bought it in 1983 for $89,000. A new apartment building in Bozeman, Montana is renting units for over $5,000 per month. All my neighbors and I have received numerous postcards and letters begging us to sell our property to realty companies sight unseen. I’ve been here 56 years and have never seen anything like this.
And the biggest concern right now is when are they going to open the park back up to tourists,I say leave it closed for the rest of this year,keep the tourists out so they can get the clean up and reconstruction started and reopen next spring after the roads are opened,the parks not going anywhere.
The lower loop of the park may open as soon as next week. The worst of the damage was done to the northern part of the park. And the northern part will not reopen this season.
They likely still need the revenue. So if they can, they'll try to make the southern section remain open. But, as others have mentioned, it looks like they'll stagger and limit the number of visitors in order to maintain the services they do and will be able to support, at this time.
The stores and restaurants in the gateway towns need the tourists to survive. The reconstruction can be managed with tourists in the area with a little planning and management.
@@ThePeteutube I am a local. It's 52 miles to Gardiner just to eat and have no access to the park. Gardiner is still closed off from all car traffic. River still to high to be doing any river rafting. Highway 89 from Livingston is a mess. More rain is predicted for this region, starting tomorrow and for Monday. Even when the road reopens, there's not a heck of a lot of things for folks to do. Have you heard about the town of Red Lodge? There again, the whole town pretty much flooded out. There's no access to the towns of Silvergate and Cooke City from Red Lodge now. Hence, no NE entrance at this time. Cody's no problem for tourists. West Yellowstone or Jackson Hole not a problem for tourists, either. That's why the lower loop will open, most likely sometime next week. They are going to limit visitors in the park for the rest of the summer. Canyon has major infrastructure issues, as does Mammoth Hot Springs.
The rain and warm weather. I have been one of the first ones to drive through the park with 12 feet of snow on either side. 1982 they Bussed a small group of Food and beverage people to open OFI to get ready for the employees to arrive.
Nothing odd about the river flooding at all. I lived in Livingston for 18 years and spring runoff starts in June and ends in July, when the river clears up, the fly fishing starts. :) However, this year brought some good rain, followed by hot weather, snowpack melted with big runoff and pushed the water level higher than I had ever seen, as evidenced by the road washouts from Livingston up through Gardiner. Highway 89 is a disaster. It happens.
It was a record flood for the area and caused A LOT of damage, and major changes to the landscape. People there don't have flood insurance because the river has never flooded that severely to warrant it. In all the time we've been recording weather and observing the landscape of the area, this has never happened. If it has, it happened long before anyone permanently settled there.
Missouri river to the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico. Only truly significant dams on the Missouri are Fort Peck reservoir in Eastern Montana, Lake Sakakewea in North Dakota and Lake Ohae in South Dakota. ( no I don't consider Canyon Ferry Res. to be significant. )
Only God, weather we like it or not controlls what he, and he alone created, t g no lives lost have never had the oppertunity to visit, probably never will, but the videis and documentaries on yellowstone are breathtaking, and very informative, stay safe everyone, ☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️☘️🙏🙏🙏🙏

@@boblatkey7160 At least you use the word 'when'. The times I hear people say 'if' I die, I have to make every effort to not shake my head at them or look shocked. And to your point, whether directly to bugs or hot oven, the bugs, bacteria and viruses will all be doing their thing eventually with us 😏. And the story continues.
I was so grateful for the snow this past winter & the rain & cooler temperatures this spring. I thought we would finally get a break from the fires & the unbreathable air. Never expected we would, instead, have the opposite end of the spectrum - just as destructive as the fires & just as heartbreaking.
Today is June 17, 2022, and the temps in Western Montana are predicted in the high 80s, low 90s, and, the Sun will evaporate these flood waters quickly. The drought is still happening.
The park was evacuated immediately after this occurred and the park was closed and the update is that it's going to be closed at least through the rest of the year. Yet your able to have unfettered access to drive through a National Park that was closed by officials and take videos??? Curious 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@aservant2287 not exactly. They are renaming a peak because the guy who they originally named it for massacred some Blackfoot Indians a long time ago. Yellowstone is actually an english translation of the french fur trappers who got the name from the (now known as) Crow Indians (because of the yellow rocks). So in a sense Yellowstone IS the Indian name.
Certainly Jesus, son of Mary (the servant and messenger of Allah ), peace be upon both of them, will descend in Syria - Al-Manara, on two angel wings, wearing two dresses of cotton, his face dripping with water as if he was coming out of a shower, his breath reaching the tip of his fingers at the length of his arm, killing everyone who entered his breath except Muslims, he breaks the cross, kills the pig and accepts only the religion of Islam, he prays with the Muslims in the Al-Aqsa Mosque, then he will kills the Antichrist, then he and those with him hide on Mount Al-Tur for fear of Gog and Magog { Gog and Magog will kill everyone on the earth except Jesus and his companions and they will eat the green, dry and inanimate opjects, then Jesus prays to Allah to kill them, so they all die because of a flying worm that enters in their noses, then he would rule the earth for 40 years in which love, justice and much prosperity would prevail even children play with snaks and wolves guard the cattle , then he would die and be buried in Muslim cemeteries. [4:171] O People of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and say not "Three" - Cease! (it is) better for you! - Allah is only One God. Far is it removed from His Transcendent Majesty that He should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Defender. [4:172] The Messiah will never scorn to be a slave unto Allah, nor will the favoured angels. Whoso scorneth His service and is proud, all such will He assemble unto Him; [4:173] Then, as for those who believed and did good works, unto them will He pay their wages in full, adding unto them of His bounty; and as for those who were scornful and proud, them will He punish with a painful doom. And they will not find for them, against Allah, any protecting friend or helper. [4:174] O mankind! Now hath a proof from your Lord come unto you, and We have sent down unto you a clear light; [4:175] As for those who believe in Allah, and hold fast unto Him, them He will cause to enter into His mercy and grace, and will guide them unto Him by a straight road. 19:81] And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may be a power for them. [19:82] Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become opponents unto them. [19:83] Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers to confound them with confusion ? [19:84] So make no haste against them (O Muhammad). We do but number unto them a sum (of days). [19:85] On the day when We shall gather the righteous unto the Beneficent, a goodly company. [19:86] And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd, [19:87] They will have no power of intercession, save him who hath made a covenant with his Lord. [19:88] And they say: The Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a son. [19:89] Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing [19:90] Whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall in ruins, [19:91] That ye ascribe unto the Beneficent a son, [19:92] When it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should choose a son. [19:93] There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave. [19:94] Verily He knoweth them and numbereth them with (right) numbering. [19:95] And each one of them will come unto Him on the Day of Resurrection, alone. [19:96] Lo! those who believe and do good works, the Beneficent will appoint for them love. [19:97] And We make (this Scripture) easy in thy tongue, (O Muhammad) only that thou mayst bear good tidings therewith unto those who ward off (evil), and warn therewith the froward folk. [19:98] And how many a generation before them have We destroyed! Canst thou (Muhammad) see a single man of them, or hear from them the slightest sound ? 39:4] If Allah had willed to choose a son, He could have chosen what He would of that which He hath created. Be He Glorified! He is Allah, the One, the Absolute. [39:5] He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. He maketh night to succeed day, and He maketh day to succeed night, and He constraineth the sun and the moon to give service, each running on for an appointed term. Is not He the Mighty, the Forgiver ? [39:6] He created you from one being, then from that (being) He made its mate; and He hath provided for you of cattle eight kinds. He created you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, in a threefold gloom. Such is Allah, your Lord. His is the Sovereignty. There is no God save Him. How then are ye turned away ? [39:7] If ye are thankless, yet Allah is Independent of you, though He is not pleased with thanklessness for His bondmen; and if ye are thankful He is pleased therewith for you. No laden soul will bear another’s load. Then unto your Lord is your return; and He will tell you what ye used to do. Lo! He knoweth what is in the breasts (of men). ------------------------------------------------ .How many children would you like to have?

Yellowstone river flows into the Gulf of Mexico via the Missouri and Mississippi rivers. Lake Mead is on the Colorado River that flows Southwest into the Gulf of California and subsequently into the Pacific Ocean..to get Yellowstone water to the Colorado you would have to pipe it over two 10,000 foot mountain range divides. One over the snake River and then over the Rockies. Also, the Yellowstone is the longest undammed river in the lower 48 states so no infrastructure to even start water transfers.
You know the park service is going to want to charge double or triple what they were charging before just to make up the money they're going to spend to try to get all these infrastructure items foot backup
Hope you people realize you're on your own there's no help coming just look at Kentucky where they had the tornado. It'll be years before they fix the roads the American way. Those people better have a good horse and a good pack mule. Gas is too expensive for a four-by-four and you really can't carry how much stuff on a 4 by 4 America the Beautiful and a government that don't care about its people.

The flood when the magma chamber rises and drains the entire Yellowstone lake into the river will make this flood seem like a trickle. We will all be washed away before any lava ever flows.

Missouri river to the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico. Only truly significant dams on the Missouri are Fort Peck reservoir in Eastern Montana, Lake Sakakewea in North Dakota and Lake Ohae in South Dakota. ( no I don't consider Canyon Ferry Res. to be significant. )
well done.
What Arizona,Nevada and California wouldn’t give for that water to go in lake Powell, Mead and others 😾
Montanans hope for more water in the Colorado too...so Californians won't move here. 😎
Only God, weather we like it or not controlls what he, and he alone created, t g no lives lost have never had the oppertunity to visit, probably never will, but the videis and documentaries on yellowstone are breathtaking, and very informative, stay safe everyone, ☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️☘️🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@boblatkey7160 You're thinking of the Easter Bunny, actually!! 😂🐰
@@boblatkey7160 IKR?!!! So many possibilities, er...distractions...er 'helpers'...😂 P.S. See you in Hell, bud! It's all good! I hear they have cookies 👍
@@boblatkey7160 At least you use the word 'when'. The times I hear people say 'if' I die, I have to make every effort to not shake my head at them or look shocked.
And to your point, whether directly to bugs or hot oven, the bugs, bacteria and viruses will all be doing their thing eventually with us 😏. And the story continues.
I'll try next year.
On the plus side, they should have an abundant crop of mosquitoes this year.
Could feed lake Mead with all this water
Is the town of west Yellowstone ok
No! It's too damn expensive! 😎
But no flood damage. Red Lodge on the other side.....that's another matter.
Safe. ???.....
All that nice, table-flat land near the waters edge is called 'floodplain' for a reason.
Mountains are called Mountains, too.
@@Diana1000Smiles See?
I was so grateful for the snow this past winter & the rain & cooler temperatures this spring. I thought we would finally get a break from the fires & the unbreathable air. Never expected we would, instead, have the opposite end of the spectrum - just as destructive as the fires & just as heartbreaking.
Today is June 17, 2022, and the temps in Western Montana are predicted in the high 80s, low 90s, and, the Sun will evaporate these flood waters quickly. The drought is still happening.
Good job! Thanks
Good visuals. Piss poor sound when cruising down the highway. We don't need to hear the wind tearing through the open window!
I'm sorry.
I missed the point of this video.
I see home movies of someone's vacation?
The park was evacuated immediately after this occurred and the park was closed and the update is that it's going to be closed at least through the rest of the year.
Yet your able to have unfettered access to drive through a National Park that was closed by officials and take videos???
Curious 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
The employees are still in the park and are allowed to explore where the roads are open
Miracle& blessing evetybody is safe.

I'm totally offended! It's not called Yellowstone national park, it's called First people's mountain! Lol you can't make it up
And yet.....you did!
@@alansach8437 no I didn't my friend. The Yellowstone national park is now called First people's mountain because Yellowstone was offensive
@@aservant2287 not exactly. They are renaming a peak because the guy who they originally named it for massacred some Blackfoot Indians a long time ago. Yellowstone is actually an english translation of the french fur trappers who got the name from the (now known as) Crow Indians (because of the yellow rocks). So in a sense Yellowstone IS the Indian name.
Hence the term ‘river valley’.
It’s too bad that some of these flood waters couldn’t be directed towards the Colorado River.
Right! It empties into the Missouri river.
In your dreams, North Yellowstone is east of the Continental Divide and part of the Missouri River water shed
You're scaring me. Why don't Americans know about Climate Change?
Peaceful easy feel'n..
Rain making control act 🤔
Certainly Jesus, son of Mary (the servant and messenger of Allah ), peace be upon both of them, will descend in Syria - Al-Manara, on two angel wings, wearing two dresses of cotton, his face dripping with water as if he was coming out of a shower, his breath reaching the tip of his fingers at the length of his arm, killing everyone who entered his breath except Muslims, he breaks the cross, kills the pig and accepts only the religion of Islam, he prays with the Muslims in the Al-Aqsa Mosque, then he will kills the Antichrist, then he and those with him hide on Mount Al-Tur for fear of Gog and Magog { Gog and Magog will kill everyone on the earth except Jesus and his companions and they will eat the green, dry and inanimate opjects, then Jesus prays to Allah to kill them, so they all die because of a flying worm that enters in their noses, then he would rule the earth for 40 years in which love, justice and much prosperity would prevail even children play with snaks and wolves guard the cattle , then he would die and be buried in Muslim cemeteries.
[4:171]
O People of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate in your religion nor utter aught concerning Allah save the truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary, and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers, and say not "Three" - Cease! (it is) better for you! - Allah is only One God. Far is it removed from His Transcendent Majesty that He should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is sufficient as Defender.
[4:172]
The Messiah will never scorn to be a slave unto Allah, nor will the favoured angels. Whoso scorneth His service and is proud, all such will He assemble unto Him;
[4:173]
Then, as for those who believed and did good works, unto them will He pay their wages in full, adding unto them of His bounty; and as for those who were scornful and proud, them will He punish with a painful doom. And they will not find for them, against Allah, any protecting friend or helper.
[4:174]
O mankind! Now hath a proof from your Lord come unto you, and We have sent down unto you a clear light;
[4:175]
As for those who believe in Allah, and hold fast unto Him, them He will cause to enter into His mercy and grace, and will guide them unto Him by a straight road.
19:81]
And they have chosen (other) gods beside Allah that they may be a power for them.
[19:82]
Nay, but they will deny their worship of them, and become opponents unto them.
[19:83]
Seest thou not that We have set the devils on the disbelievers to confound them with confusion ?
[19:84]
So make no haste against them (O Muhammad). We do but number unto them a sum (of days).
[19:85]
On the day when We shall gather the righteous unto the Beneficent, a goodly company.
[19:86]
And drive the guilty unto hell, a weary herd,
[19:87]
They will have no power of intercession, save him who hath made a covenant with his Lord.
[19:88]
And they say: The Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a son.
[19:89]
Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing
[19:90]
Whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall in ruins,
[19:91]
That ye ascribe unto the Beneficent a son,
[19:92]
When it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should choose a son.
[19:93]
There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave.
[19:94]
Verily He knoweth them and numbereth them with (right) numbering.
[19:95]
And each one of them will come unto Him on the Day of Resurrection, alone.
[19:96]
Lo! those who believe and do good works, the Beneficent will appoint for them love.
[19:97]
And We make (this Scripture) easy in thy tongue, (O Muhammad) only that thou mayst bear good tidings therewith unto those who ward off (evil), and warn therewith the froward folk.
[19:98]
And how many a generation before them have We destroyed! Canst thou (Muhammad) see a single man of them, or hear from them the slightest sound ?
39:4]
If Allah had willed to choose a son, He could have chosen what He would of that which He hath created. Be He Glorified! He is Allah, the One, the Absolute.
[39:5]
He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. He maketh night to succeed day, and He maketh day to succeed night, and He constraineth the sun and the moon to give service, each running on for an appointed term. Is not He the Mighty, the Forgiver ?
[39:6]
He created you from one being, then from that (being) He made its mate; and He hath provided for you of cattle eight kinds. He created you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, in a threefold gloom. Such is Allah, your Lord. His is the Sovereignty. There is no God save Him. How then are ye turned away ?
[39:7]
If ye are thankless, yet Allah is Independent of you, though He is not pleased with thanklessness for His bondmen; and if ye are thankful He is pleased therewith for you. No laden soul will bear another’s load. Then unto your Lord is your return; and He will tell you what ye used to do. Lo! He knoweth what is in the breasts (of men). ------------------------------------------------

Why is their not flood gates in place to divert water into the lake mead or lake Powell?
Lake Mead is in Nevada and Lake Powell is in Arizona. How would they do that?
@@megcook2099 engineering , they can put men on the moon!
Yellowstone river flows into the Gulf of Mexico via the Missouri and Mississippi rivers. Lake Mead is on the Colorado River that flows Southwest into the Gulf of California and subsequently into the Pacific Ocean..to get Yellowstone water to the Colorado you would have to pipe it over two 10,000 foot mountain range divides. One over the snake River and then over the Rockies. Also, the Yellowstone is the longest undammed river in the lower 48 states so no infrastructure to even start water transfers.
You know the park service is going to want to charge double or triple what they were charging before just to make up the money they're going to spend to try to get all these infrastructure items foot backup
Arghhhh!
Extreme drought it worse.
Oh No! The tax funded Disneyland can't charge an entry fee?
Hope you people realize you're on your own there's no help coming just look at Kentucky where they had the tornado. It'll be years before they fix the roads the American way. Those people better have a good horse and a good pack mule. Gas is too expensive for a four-by-four and you really can't carry how much stuff on a 4 by 4 America the Beautiful and a government that don't care about its people. You were Ukraine people you would get almost 80 billion dollars a billion additional billion every month God Bless America
Possibly your religious delusions cause you to blame everyone but Kentuckians for our Human failures? Climate changes will continue and will definitely become more radical.
@@Diana1000Smiles know when I grew up we had things called clang clang there goes the trolley the fossil fuel companies ripped up the trolley tracks and replace them with dirty diesel buses that was back in the 60s today I blame fossil fuels for destroying this country because they were warned by scientist that they claimed was Maniacs mentally unstable once they got away with it now you see what's going on my advice to you is love everybody be nice because it's a lot later than we all want to believe it is good luck
Wow , looked like a river to me, not much destruction but got to make every crisis count right???
Send money and baby formula.....lol rivers rise people. They still have snow in the mountains. Get a grip, every cold isnt a worldwide pandemic. People have lost touch.....
Pristine Mother Nature doing what it has done for millenea before the infestation otf the "white" man.....
does it make you regret being alive? do you live a life reflective of knowing YOU are a scourge and therefore should not thrive?? no I bet you SEEK to thrive , so sit down.
@@MrHandoverfist oh be quiet.
Instead of saying WHITE MAN,insert the words DUMB TWO LEGGED ANIMALS.
Shut up
Divert some to the Colorado
Why?
Then figure out how to divert it, Scott. You'd make lots of money!
Down the Mighty Missouri & not coming back.
lol are you dumb? North Yellowstone is east of the Continental Divide and part of the Missouri River watershed which is really a midwest watershed
No issues
Hope the people in charge of the dams remembered the save alot of that water and not just let it blow past them..
The Yelliwstone River is NOT dammed.
Wow stupid the yellow stone runs into the Missouri...
@@xstlady52 and the Gallatin and the Madison and the Jefferson all turn into the upper Missouri..and they were all part of this Avent..you must be from newyork..
Everything east of the Continental Divide is part of the Missouri River watershed, and everyone west of the divide thinks it can easily be stolen
@@jojobaker1764 I am aware but where are the dams? There are no storage dams on the Yellowstone River. And no diversion dams.
The water was clearing a path for the lava flow coming soon. The end is near.
The flood when the magma chamber rises and drains the entire Yellowstone lake into the river will make this flood seem like a trickle. We will all be washed away before any lava ever flows.
Nonsense. Have you been to Yellowstone?
@@Diana1000Smiles have I been to Yellowstone really I live here jack wagon
@@Diana1000Smiles better. I live in Paradise valley and study hydrology. You were saying?
mother nature at her fines
Thanks
Sleepy Joe and his climate Zar should have made a tweet to the army Corp of engineers and had this park open next week.
