Randy, If you haven't ever checkout out the waterfalls on Heater Creek and Kinney Creek, you should. The water was coming into the lake at a rate of 5500 cubic feet per second last time the temperature reached 70 degrees. With 90 degrees forcast, they are lowering the lake to accomodate the extra runoff. It is still plenty high but it will be interesting to see how fast it fills during the heat wave. If you don't still have the posts I made in Google earth, just go to google and search for bbs Detroit Lake. You can look at the locations of the falls. You can also go to panoramio web site and search for Detroit Lake and see the falls I am talking about. We went to both places last weekend. You have to anchor a little ways from Heater creek and walk up the steep bank but it is really raging with water. I got my boat a little dirty from our shoes but it was worth it. I hope to go Saturday and come back Sunday. My son is in a play Saturday night. The best part of the heat is it will warm the frigid lake up a little bit. We might see you around up on the water. Have a great time! John
