The NeverEnding Winter is finally over (we hope). Snow right from early November through to mid-April. But, Spring is in the air and it's time to ENJOY! I'm sure you have shots that you'd like to see included. Just email your pic to higley4us@gmail.com and I'll try to include it. - Thanks, Bob Agel higley4us@gmail.com |
Another Great Year at
Higley Begins!
|
 April 7th. We're not the only ones waiting!! |
 This WILL happen folks! It's 4/22 and the main channel is clear, Big Bay is clear and Wilson's Bay (aka Little Bay) has just a few stubborn bergs to finish up. Thanks Jean Fallon for the pic. |
 And another great year begins. First launch 4/25/19. |
 A beautiful day. Just don't touch the water!! BRRRR!!!! |
 Between the storms, flood warnings and temperature swings, Jean Fallon grabbed this shot that reminds us of the beauty we have every day at Higley. |
 While we're waiting for good weather and all the great pics on Higley Flow, let's not forget our friends on Lower Higley and the raw beauty that water offers. |
 Still close to flood stage, the Raquette River flows north through Lower Higley. |

 It's weedy and shallow, but Lower Higley has a unique beauty all it's own. |
 The story I've heard is that these weed patch islands were the remnants of the floating islands sent over the dam from upper Higley. |
The first cruise of the year means we check out all Higley's waters... |
... including Stump Bay! My, it always LOOKS so pretty! |
 Jean Fallon captured the happy smiles as we sailed into Stump Bay. Marilyn is the happiest, since she has a kayak and no prop to worry about. |
 The State Park beach is empty right now, but the Park is about to open and when the water warms, that will be a crowded area. |
 Stump Bay is a mile or so in length and has some of the best scenery at Higley Flow. But don't forget where you are! |
 Whoops! That isn't a flock of geese sitting on the water! Stumps ahead! Got to swing around and head back pronto!
|
 Ed Harcourt was kind enough to send in these two great shots of Higley. This one's looking downstream.

 This one's looking upstream. Thanks, Ed! |
 Jerry & Sandy Peck are back and just in time! Look at the forecast for this weekend! Time to get a-boatin' or at least a-FLOW-tin' . It's finally Higley Time! |
 Ed Harcourt just sent in another great shot: "Sunday morning drone shot South Colton facing north." |
 Danielle Hall-Bugler posted this series of shots that illustrate all the great Summer Fun here on Higley Flow. |
