DETROIT LAKES – Water levels on area lakes are so low that some are coming up with unique ways to pull their boats out of the water.
A photo posted to social media this week showed a tractor helping to pull a boat out of West Battle Lake. The photo has been shared hundreds of times with others commenting they may need to consider doing the same thing.
Last week the Minnesota DNR began encouraging boaters to remove their boats from lakes early to avoid issues at boat ramps.
As water levels continue to drop due in many areas to drought, boaters are experiencing significant issues with launching and retrieving boats. DNR crews are repairing and extending many boat launch ramps to provide boating opportunities in these low-water conditions. However, little can be done to fix boat ramps on naturally shallow lakes or in places where power loading has caused holes that are too deep to fix with equipment.
