I'm not positive, but I believe this is the dam that is threatened.

Yes, my Grandma use to live there when she was alive. The center is the cabin she gave birth to her children in. 2 of the cabins are the original ones from Zion Canyon. She built all that into her home. Even when she was alive she rented the outer rooms to guests. Now we rent the entire house. Its a great place for groups to stay. I thought about using it for a Bogleyfest before. Perhaps the next one!
If its still there after this week! We checked it many times today, and so far its okay. The motel next to it is taking a beating to the little land behind that. That is where 2 of my Grandma's kids drowned in a flash flood about 1940.
Great photos Kurt! Thanks for posting them!

Be patient, panorama is 3.5 MB big.
Nice :) I'm jealous of all you locals. Anyone want to take an inflatable kayak and go hop in the subway? I keep trying to get a permit but their site is down for maintenance!!!
:banana::roflmao1:
(I'm mostly kidding... I'd look into it more seriously if I wasn't busy with christmas family plans - and after looking into it seriously would probably not end up going)
Oh no! Not the log.
I think we should set up a wager. I am betting its still there at the end of the week! :lol8:
