Bismarck Boat Ramp Shuts Down For Good?
Last weekend I brought my new dog Daisy down to what was me and my
old dog Titus' stomping ground shore-side west of Sertoma Park. I'm still amazed at the changes since the "flood" of 2011. I used the quote marks, because I'm from the valley in Minot and my family still live there. My apologies to those that lost property in the 2011 flood, but it ain't the same until your home is under water for weeks. But still, some residents 'round here got flooded hard. My heart's out to you.
What 2011 did do is insanely change the basic river channel. When younger Titus and I would go down shore-side, there would be eddy pools around he could splash in and plenty of trees and brush to maneuver through. Now, it's like a California beach. You really should bring the Frisbee down and give it a go. I'm sure Mother Nature will reclaim the pristine beaches sooner than we think, but referring to floods as "100 year floods" has always seemed foolish to me. I'm from Minot and was five years old in 1969.
