    I was thrilled to see the mess around this lake drain. I had checked it the day before but it didn't have any of the debris that was around it today. There has been A LOT of snow melting and water drainage from the storm this past week, and the pond showed it.
    I hope you enjoy the video, and thanks for watching!

    This type of drain in this type of location would have to get a lot more debris to become a problem.
    The water could rise another 5-10 feet without it flooding. The bottom of the grate gets clogs, the water flow slows and rises and the water goes over the clog. That is how it is designed.
    That being said, it was still a fantastic job of unclogging. Great job!

    • @UpNorthMowingDude
      @UpNorthMowingDude  3 дня назад +2

      You are correct Rich. I can't imagine it flooding in there. Probably the only downside to water getting too high would be erosion on the shore where they don't want erosion. Ultimately it's just fun to go splash around a little bit. :)

The channel on the exit end has not been opened. You were supposed to do it last year in a video. Tad disappointed. So relaxing to see the water flow. So perfect for Saturday afternoon video watch.
