Time for your latest Lake Trahlyta progress report!

The water keeps steadily rising, and we are currently sitting at about 16.5 feet of total progress. That means we have roughly 13 feet left to go until we reach full pool. It is incredibly rewarding to watch the lake slowly take its shape back day by day, and we are getting closer to the finish line.

Just a quick reminder that the Lake Trahlyta Loop Trail is still closed across the top of the dam. Our crews are actively working in that area, so please stay clear of that section for your own safety.

We will keep tracking the numbers and bring you another update next week. Thanks for sticking with us and following along!

We have another great Lake Trahlyta progress report for you this week!

The water level is currently sitting just shy of 16 feet! The lake is really starting to take shape again, and it is looking more and more like its old self every single day. We still have about 13.5 feet left to go before we reach full pool, but the progress has been fantastic to watch. As the water continues to spread out across the wider parts of the lakebed, the overall upward rise will slow down a bit, but it is well on its way.

As a quick safety reminder, the Lake Trahlyta Loop Trail remains closed across the top of the dam. Our construction crews are still working in that area, so please continue to avoid that active work site while they finish up.

We will keep tracking the water levels and share another update with you next week. Thank you all for following along and for your continued support!

We have another great Lake Trahlyta progress report for you!

Since our last update on Thursday, the water has come up an additional foot, bringing our total to a little over 14 feet! We actually have to give a quick shoutout to Mother Nature for this week's boost—the heavy rains that moved through with the remnants of Hurricane Isaias definitely helped speed things along. Even with the bowl effect slowing the overall upward rise, catching some good rain makes a big difference!

As a quick reminder, the Lake Trahlyta Loop Trail remains closed across the top of the dam. Our construction crews are still working up there, so please continue to avoid that active work site for your own safety.

We will keep an eye on the water levels and share another update with you next week. Thank you all for following along and for your continued support!

Better late than never! Here is your latest look at the Lake Trahlyta refill.

We are officially sitting at 13 feet 3 inches of progress. That adds another 9 inches of water since our last check-in. You might notice the upward climb slowing down a little bit, but the water is still flowing in just as steady. Because the lake gets wider toward the surface, the incoming water simply has a lot more ground to cover now.

As always, a quick safety reminder. The loop trail section running across the top of the dam is still closed. Crews are actively working in that spot, so please steer clear of that area while they finish up.

Thanks for sticking with us. We will catch you next week with another update.
