February 5, 2012 - Roadside Gully, Lock Haven

Dismal conditions at Lock Haven after the extremly warm temperatures we experienced last week. Here are two pics of Roadside Gully along Rt 120 from Sunday 2/5/12. All ice is gone on the approach gully and the first two steep tiers. The only ice that is hanging on is on Glass Menangerie on the third tier. From the road it looks like it barely touches down and appears to be poorly bonded. I am betting it will be on the road by next weekend. No ice was visible when looking across the river at the Gemini Gullies, so I saw no reason to investigte any further there, or at the Hidden Amphitheater.  Not looking good.

Took a drive up the Renovo Road today to assess the dismal conditions. Here are a couple of shots looking up Roadside Gully. Not yet folks. From the amount of water currently coming down the falls, we will need at least a week of single digit temps to bring the low angle approach in. I was surprised to see a substantial amount of ice on Glass Menagerie to the right on the upper tier.
