Low, but not slow...


Stillwater

My virtual travel has lead me to Benton, CA, and there is clearly a preferred choice when it comes to liveries to be used from there.

Starting to the north I crossed Keswick Dam...

Heading southeast I climbed across Lassen Peak, high enough for a snowy scenery.

But Honey Lake looked as expected and feared.

Which makes it easier for the stuff at Sierra Army depot to stay dry.

Reno-Stead airport looks like a free upgrade, not totally fitting into the region pack?

South of Reno we met Lake Washoe (to the left) and Lake Tahoe (to the right).

Record low levels in all the California reservoirs this year , some so critical that they might have to stop producing power . :(:o

That is what I feared, John. Today I read that hedgefonds and investors buy californian water sources and sell drinking water at huge profit to the people. I mean, to that people that form and own the nation, and pay taxes. For me that is really a big shxx.

I highly recommend this series , season 3 is all about water rights in California ; it is on Netflix https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4687880/episodes/?ref_=tt_ov_epl
