Lake Monacan @ Stoney Creek
Nellysford, Virginia
Below is a photo we took on October 7th. Low even then.

It’s hard to tell because the positioning of my camera was in a different location, but it is lower than it was on the 7th. For additional photos scroll below.
Below Henri Weems of Rodes Farm stands on top of the overflow spillway that is usually under water.
Below, Henri grabs a rare photo of the spillway.
Looking back toward the spillway facing south.
Under normal conditions Henri would easily be under water where he’s standing looking back toward the dock.
