    The level of the Boeri did rise, as expected, with the passage of Erika. I visited the lake the Saturday before Erika, and the area in the foreground was not yet submerged. But the heavy rains did not cause the lake to fill up, as you can see the high-water mark quite clearly. For those who do not know the lake too well, the area in the foreground leads to the lake’s outlet.

    I wish it actually looked like that. Too much photo manipulation.

    the lake real high, or is this a different angle, because I remember being able to go past those large rocks, I think it’s larger than normal look at the grass underwater

      That’s not grass in the water, its the reflection of the mountain in the water
