Thats a lot of displaced game. I guess the deer can search out high ground.
Lot of hunting camps at or just barely above 98.0 ft.
My buddy has a camp on dummyline, the mound he built is at 97.5 ft and camp on conventional foundation.
His camp will be the only thing sticking out. He will probably have deer or hogs on his porch.

Hwy 16 just west of wolf lake was being closed on Friday on my way home. Have to find a new way to get to work, though there's not much can be done with this high water.

Drove through Delta National on the way to Rolling Fork on Friday morning and saw some boys working hard with a backhoe to build a levee around their camp. Hope they were successful.

With the rain due this week, who knows what could happen next.

Here is your man-made. I dont think we want to live without it despite what all the environmentalist say.
