You can see the repair that went into Yancey's Creek on the 6th hole. With the amount of rain we receive in Highlands, erosion is a ongoing problem. Think about it...we get 100" of rain, much of it comes down quick and then on top of that, are a lot of steep slopes. The water moves! Erosion like this leads to sedimentation of lakes and ponds. Projects like dredging and creek bank restoration become more regular in areas like Highlands compared to more arid climates.
