Sunday on the Bow River

We cross over Fish Creek most every morning, and we’ve been watching the water volume gradually decrease over the past number of days. So it was no surprise when we noticed this morning that the water colour on the Bow River had improved at both the Fish Creek and Policeman’s Flats boat launches. Green without the brown tinge.

However, we were a bit surprised to see some improvement in the water colour at McKinnon Flats, although not as pronounced. Looking at the river flow charts this evening, it is evident that the flow rate at the mouth of the Highwood has declined a wee bit over the past couple of days.
