The treadway is still about ten inches under water, but I designed it to function in high water too. I waded across just slick as you please this morning. Remember ... knee-high rubber boots are standard outdoor wear when hunting here!
If anything, it's a bit more solid than it was when I first built it, because the muck around it's posts has settled a lot since last week. I anticipated that this would be the case.
Only one problem: As I expected, a bear is biting big chunks out of the "chicken board" stairs up the side of the dike.
In a way, I hate bears. You can't have anything because of them.

At least, it will survive this season and perhaps help me to build something bear-proof.
One thing's sure: I doubt it will ever see more of a flood than this recent one!
