@Maersk.146 Hi Keith- Is the Missouri River usually this low in the spring? I was surprised to see the sandbar in the middle of the river.
@1cctlives
Hi A J - Unless we've had a lot of rain, this level seems fairly normal. The river is dredged to the south side of the channel for river traffic here, so the sandbar has been there for a while. I do remember in the early 90's that it was right up against the north bank, such that one could walk right out on it, but the 93 flood changed all that.
