Spring Creek Flood

2011- We had a flood that came from Spring Creek right into our back yard. After year of just a small stream, we couldnt have imagined the amount of water that would come down from the mountains in the middle of July. Neighbors, friends and family came and sandbagged and helped pump water out of basements. Luckily my basement didn't flood. Even with four foot retaining walls that we put in the year before, we still had water coming over into the yard because of the build up of rocks raising the bottom of the creek even higher.
I was very greatful for everyones help. Jeff came up for the weekend and got put to work all weekend.

I eventually gave in and let them put in a back hoe in my back yard to pull out the fence and trees that were blocking the water.

Lots of help from the ward and neighbors
