Has anyone been out to owyhee reservoir this spring? I know the water levels are down to about 25 percent of full, and was trying to see if anyone has put a boat on the water out there?
Also, does anyone have any info on how they may manage the water out there? I know owyhee snowpack was well below normal, and that has to be a problem this year with no inflow and the levels already being so low. Talked to a rancher last summer that uses the res. for irrigation and said if there wasn't a good snowpack there would be trouble this year. In years past owyhee was one of my favorites, but haven't been out for a while. Hoping it will hold up this summer.
