Folks. I present the Hoodoo creek!
We have 650 feet on the Hoodoo creek. I took 3 of our 5 springers down for a swim and photo shoot. Lots of ducks and geese, as well as osprey and bald eagles cruising the water for fish. Pretty darn cool when a bald eagle hits that water and flies away with a nice sized fish.

The creek is spring fed from the Hoodoo lake, a 62 acre lake just 2 miles up the way. It never even drops in depth in the hardest of summer. Typically the creek is anywhere from 4-8 feet deep.

It's never come over the bank, except one year when we had about 12 feet of combined snow for the year, part of our field got about 3 inches of water. The creek maintains the same level, about 6 feet all year long, even in the summer. The kids sure do love it!
