Hey Brad & everyone - I am not going to be able to attend this year. Both my brother and I just got new jobs and we haven't banked any time off yet. Thanks for a great year last year and I look forward to attending next year! Hope everyone has a blast and hope y'all have great water!

We will miss you this year Kyle. Best of luck with the new jobs, maybe we will see you guys on the local lakes this summer.

[The Black Widow]

We will definitely be there this year! Will booked a fishing cabin last month for his girlfriend and son and Jack and I will be camping as usual. Can't wait for another awesome trip

waiting for southwest to start booking flights into september and plan on putting it on the vacation calendar.

Just some interesting information and something to put things in perspective... The following are the Lake Mead water levels between January 1 and February 17 over the last 6 years according to http://mead.uslakes.info/level.asp:

2012 - Up .9
2013 - Up 2.0
2014 - Up 1.8
2015 - Up 1.2
2016 - Up 3.3
2017 - Up 7.25

Who knows, we might be able to launch on concrete this year!

[Bad05]

It's amazing how much the lake has changed with the rising water levels. Not sure what Temple looks like but I imagine it will be significantly better than last year. As for launching on concrete, you know a few of us rednecks with big 4x4 trucks can help you out so you don't have to get that fancy SUV stuck in the sand!

LOL - I had help launching and recovering last year, thanks to Thegerman618. I just hope he doesn't start charging me for it!

[TeamAllen]

Wow. it is almost the same as the other years combined. And there is more rain and snow on the way.

[Thegerman618]

Saw a recent photo on Instagram or facebook don't remember said the have moved the dock for the 4th time this year and they are officially back on concrete.

[throttlebody]

We will be there for sure. Booked a RV spot and bringing the truck camper. Didn't want drive that for with it but it is better than a tent.

On a second note let me know if I can help with anything this year.

[D&P Powell]

Just in case no one noticed, Thegerman618 has been updating the attendees above in Post #65. We are also waiting on a response from a potential "International" guest . In the meantime... I was wondering, can we possibly get as many boats as last year?

Looks like mead has hit its peak for the year. Historically, this is the fullest it will be all year. It is going to be interesting to see if we get any runoff bump come May and June. Snowpack is 150% of average currently for the basin.

For the snowpack nerds like me, here is a recent update: https://www.cbrfc.noaa.gov/wsup/pub2...on/current.pdf
