Losing Ground?

This dock isn't losing ground... it is losing the water it floats on! Cascade Lake is actually a reservoir and during the late summer, the impact on the water table is noticable as water is siphoned off the 40-mile long lake for irrigation. The dock will soon be high and dry on ground... the only water remaining at the northern end will be a small stream inear the oposite shore. When the rains and snow melt in teh springtime, the lake will fill again.
