My Observations

Area: Thompson River, Kamloops, BC
Observations: I know this isn’t OUR watershed, but it does bring up concerns and it is a sign….
I was in Kamloops picking up a canopy for my new-to-me wheels and stopped to have a walk IN the Thompson River. I grew up here and I can’t say that I can remember ever a time where I could wallk out into the middle of the Thompson River without getting drowned (if you have ever had the chance to see how full this river gets!). I spent many summers at this river, swimming on those hot, dry Kamloops summers! But maybe I never paid enough attention to river water levels back when I was a kid, I don’t think we really had such worries then…..
