I know it's nearly a week after July 4th, but I try to post an update on or near three holidays throughout the year -- Memorial Day, the 4th of July and Labor Day.
This is by no means a scientific measure of the water levels of Leech Lake, only gauge I can use against other similar measurements I take.
This year, just after July 4, 2011, the water level was up to and covering the 7th cement piling of my boat ramp with water lapping at the 8th piling. This is the same water level as in late May of this year.
The highest I've ever seen it was covering 9 pilings, while the lowest level didn't even reach the first piling.
My conclusion, therefore, is the lake is among its highest water level for this time of year.
