Early rain builds hope for outdoor recreation in ’17
By Tom Stienstra, San Francisco Chronicle
The start of rainy season and its effects on the outdoors next year already are showing promise.
The little-seen numbers from water agencies show there is a good chance of a great 2017 for camping at lakes and streams, and boating, rafting, fishing and water sports.
Over the weekend, I reviewed reports made by about 25 water districts to the state Department of Water Resources and federal Bureau of Reclamation.
