Does anyone know condition of Milford lake ORV area?

#1 Post by VetSki » Fri Jun 26, 2015 2:08 pm

Does anyone know if the School Creek area at Milford Lake is all flooded out? I was hoping to go riding there on 6/27/15 while the cooler weather is here.

Thanks!

Flooded!!
It sounds like it'll be awhile before the corp even releases any substantial amount of water.

The corp. is releasing water out of the lake (800cfs.)now but it'll still be awhile before enough goes down and dries up some. Then there will be the task of clearing trail of limbs and debri because that stuff always finds a way to end up on the trails when the water goes out.
Wanna help? :wink:

I rode out there last weekend. Some of the low areas are still flooded but the majority of the area is rideable. We spent six hours riding without getting bored.

Was out there today...it's getting more accessable. There are low spots that are holding water, especially on the north end but most areas are ridable.
