Holmes Bend boat launch

What is the highest level when you can still launch a boat on the actual ramp? I've heard of people launching in the turn around area or on the road. I'm just curious since sometimes I'm by myself.

I think it's like 5ft over Summer Pool (680

) before it's at the top of the ramp where it meets the turnaround ... so you'd still have to climb on the trailer tongue and onto your vehicle if you're by yourself.

OH, and one other thing ... Holmes Bend launch fee is still $5.00 and will be charged starting April 1st. HOWEVER ... there will be no cash payment !! There will be a new box that accepts credit cards only !!

I pretty sure its 682 right at the top of the ramp. It's little more than that now.

You're right about that, Tim. It's 688 & still rising, and they're only pulling it at 254cfs.

For everyone who launches from Holmes bend. If we pay for a launching fee. The boaters should have priority parking.

I agree Tim but you know how that works...

I knew Tim would know exactly. Nice to know about the payment box. I usually get a yearly pass from the Corp. Hopefully they put it far enough up the hill that it's not under water right now!! I haven't been on Green yet this year because of the levels. Hopefully you local guys have been able to get out and do some good.
