<br />19 <br /> <br /> <br />. I ,...- - <br />'0 - r ' <br />It f ! <br /> <br />This is a depiction of the section from Campbel's to Phil's Auto before the <br />flood of 1993. In this flood there was about six acres that were lost on the <br />right bank. These acres are colored light green. <br /> <br />The ground that was lost was the home of several large cottonwood <br />trees. These trees probably took root in 1912. <br /> <br />The Area that eroded away in the flood of 1993 took almost the same <br />path as the 1912 flood. The difference was in 1912 the river continued <br />thought the marsh land colored dark green. The river would have done the <br />same 1993, but a levee with school busses held the advancing river off. <br />.. '- ". <br /> <br />In the event of another flood; there is danger of the river recapturing the <br />marshland. The new channel would re-enter the river right in the middle of <br />Phil's Auto. Something worth looking at. <br />
