THE WATER IS HIGH AND THE DEER ARE ACTIVE

SIOUX RIVER ROARING OVER THE BIG ROCK

DEER ALONG HWY. J

Monday,  25 degrees F, wind moderate with stronger gusts.  The sky is cloudy and overcast.  The humidity is down to 55% (because it is so windy) and the barometer has risen to 30.04".  There is a biting wind tho morning.  It feels like winter has returned to Bayfield.
   The snow continued to disappear over the weekend, with few signs of flooding anywhere, even though the rivers are running high.  The Sioux River was boiling over the Big Rock on Sunday, with few signs of anyone trying to fish for the steelhead trout that should be running up the river to spawn any time now.
   The deer continue to be very active. I counted eight along a short stretch of Hwy. J yesterday.  They looked pretty fit, considering the very rough winter we have had.
