When is the water level at Beltzville Dam at a usable level & when do the docks go in? It's been in the 50's this weekend & I'm starting to get the itch to hit the water again!

I was over there yesterday and the gates were locked at Pine Run. The parking lot was flooded.

So much for the record low water levels from last September :) Hopefully it's ready to go in a month or so??

This Corps of Engineers web site will give the water levels in real time. Click twice on the yellow triangle at Beltzville to bring it up;

generally the docks are put back in late march early april depending on the weather. The parking lot is slightly under water. I've seen it higher then that already

These lakes need webcams so I can monitor dock/water level status & daydream :)
