Decided to check out the Blanco River running behind The Lodge apartments after the Memorial Day flood… More extensive damage than the Halloween flood in 2013. Several cypress trees uprooted… I visited the river on 5/31/15, so about a week after, and the river was still going strong through River Rd. There was a sign […]
If you are going down Hutchinson street and take the short -cut left right before chipotle.. there is a huge water divot in the ground and when get filled with water really hard to see where the whole is to drive over it. Going quickly enough could for sure pop your tire.
The road is actually called Low Water Crossing Rd. It is near Ranch Road 620 just south of Mansfield dam and connects to Long Bow Trail road. There are warning signs but no gauges.
I have driven over this crossing hundreds of times.
This low water crossing is located in Gruene Texas and is fed and by Canyon Lake, the flow is controlled by the dam. This does make this a much safer water crossing than some of the others I have seen on here, but still, a valid water crossing.
