Actually it was the the Willamette Queen Sternwheeler that is causing the water to rise. It is stuck on a gravel bar and they holding water back at Willamette Falls Dam in Oregon City to raise the water level to get it unstuck.

We were working at Keizer DGC on Saturday and the river started to fill the big pond up again. The water cut off direct access to basket 11.
