Was by the lower stretches a few days ago and was still solid ice. Not sure about the upper stretch. With the warmer weather it shouldn't be too long now and the Stauffer is always the first to clear up as it is a spring fed creek.

Might have been melt flowing over top of the ice as well.

Sounds like it's time to start tying up some "specials"

My father drove over it today on RR45, 2 Miles east of 761. He said the water was open. Didn’t notice if it was clear or not. I’ll be passing over it tomorrow around noon. I will let you know how it looks.

Ice is gone on Range Road 45. Water is very high and dirty and flowing. I have a picture but it is not wanting to upload.

The field runoff is on. Depending on the weather, it may take two weeks to clear.
