There was lots of debris Sunday afternoon at the far eastern end under the GW Parkway bridge. With this morning’s flooding I didn’t want to take a chance on running into something large that was submerged, and also took the route through Crystal City. As the water receeds, there will be even more junk left behind. I hope it gets cleared away quickly.
The 50 yards or so north of Memorial Bridge on the Mt Vernon Trail was also flooded on Sunday and this morning. From last springs experience, I expect that there will be a ton of mud deposited there. Again, I hope the NPS will clear that quickly for a change.
I was told there was flooding on the MVT yesterday morning at Dangerfield Island, so expect the same today?
Finally, does anyone know the status of Hains Point? It was closed yesterday from flooding and the water was higher this morning.
