Tioga river sluice wash out

·

A took this picture yesterday of a spot on near the headwaters of the Tioga by County Bridge.

Approximately where the lat-long marker is:

It's DCNR land so it's unlikely that the sluice will be replaced. The other end of the path also has sluices washed out. We get back there with A's 4wd F150 but it's rough.

I have a neat video of a road and its sluice pipe being washed way in Broome County, NY, but it looks like it's in icky FB format and I can't share outside. My favorite amusement park, Knoebel's Grove in Elysburg, PA, has been hit pretty hard but they've always bounced back from flooding. You can see their pix here

    After a little work I figured out how to add facebook videos. Do you want me to add it for you? I will be something to do to it automatically later.
