The boat ramp was a roaring rapids as well as the rip-rap lined ditch down from the burn barrel.
The new rock wall along drive behind house was diverting some of the water that flows from the second tier and past the garage. The asphalt drive also handles a lot of water.
The parking area was washing away as the culvert was blocked with branches and leaves from "cathedral cove".
The water down the boat ramp was NOT flowing where it was supposed to!! Need to raise the boards across the deck supports so the water can flow thru to the lake. We had a lot of rock and dirt wash into the walkway under the deck.
Muddy water flowing from second tier past garage, thru upper rock garden, across asphalt and then over the steps by the rental. Washed out a lot of dirt and smaller rocks. I've chipped an "overflow" spillway into the concrete retaining wall to divert the water into the flower garden spillway to hopefully prevent this.
Water finally runs down steps in lower rock garden and over seawall into the lake. This water was "met" by the flood coming around the cathedral side and running under the deck. A mess but so far nothing structurally damaged. They opened up the dam enough so that the river below was almost out of its banks. The two docks below the new bridge were sticking straight out and almost a little bit "upward"!!
The middle road down to Liebler's was washed badly as was Robin Road. Have those passable but still need some more work.
