Check out these pictures of major flooding on the Grand River in Ada, MI from snow-melt and ice jams. Most of the flooding occurred as temperatures skyrocketed to near 60F last week after 50+ inches of snow in the month of December! You can see the horizontal planes of ice about 3 inches above the water level shown here, which indicates the crest of the flood. The Grand River is about 300 yards away in the direction of this photo...Last night there were deer and other animals wandering aimlessly in our neighborhood after being displaced by the flood waters. Check out Chris taking his team to the limit to document this deadly flood. After snapping these pictures, I thought I was going to have to pull him to safety. MASS CHAOS!
Chris in a state of panic, sliding into the freezing flood water!
Unparalleled balance saves his life...
