It looks like Havasu has dropped a few feet over the past 7-10 days.  If your goin' out this week-end or next, watch out at Windsor, going off the end of the ramp, you may not be able to get up river, etc.... :rolleyes

That is, if you don't have a JET..... :D

And Apache's gonna go down farther this winter.  I drove up there on my day off just goofing around 3m Island and I was surprised how low it was already.  And how cold it is too.

Nary a breeze but it looks like 6 boats all within about 100 yards of each other, and that wonderful Parker boat chop seems easily visible. Although the water looks cleaner ;)

Was on the Strip Friday and there was a little breeze but not bad at all.  As the day went on the boat count did seem to get stronger in the afternoon. But not bad at all.  There were a couple of flatties running around just having a good o'l time.  :good
