The Argus says that the Missouri River is ten feet higher this year:
What was expected to be a dry and dull summer on Lake Oahe is turning into a hot spot for anglers and boaters this year.
Surprising late spring rains and controls on the fish hatch launched conditions favorable to water sports and excellent fishing at the recreation area, and jolted the local economy.
At 1,577 feet above sea level, Lake Oahe is as much as 10 feet higher than expected at this point in the summer. The state has been able to keep 18 boat ramps open from Pierre to the North Dakota border, six to eight more than the ramp managers thought might be available back in April.
The Argus also reports that Homestake Gold Mine is a finalist for an underground laboratory.
