I’ve never done it and wouldn’t do it. Hell, even the Walkill River near me swells into a lake, and it gets going with enough force to knock down trees. It was a factor in choosing my home as well. I’m at the top of a hill, in the highest elevation area in the state lol. People who live in flood zones and camp in floodzones are asking for trouble, especially with big storms upstream. I guess they learned their lesson now. Some of em paid with their lives. It’s a wicked, nasty world. Gotta look out.
