    Wixom

    Been seeing some news clips from Wixom Lake and wondered what kind of impact the drawdown will have on the lake going forward. Seems pretty drastic and I can't help but think it'll be a few years for it to get back to normal. Anyone ever experience this kind of phenomenon anywhere else? It's cool looking at some of the pics but a little depressing as well. Probably gonna have our club steer clear of it next year just in case!
