Every time I drive 101 along the South fork eel corridor I eyeball those high water marks and try to fathom that amount of water there.

Klamath was pretty well wiped out in the 64 flood. Did that house survive? I was working and living in Klamath in 1966.

I was told the water had gotten close but it was creek behind us that caused the most damage.

I remember duck hunting on Humboldt Bay the winter of 64 and seeing all the helicopters coming and going taking emergence supplies to all the stranded people all over the county. We were all cut off and isolated from the rest of the world. All the roads and bridges were washed away.
