Looking south toward the west fork of the San Jacinto. A giant sand dune, 15 feet high blocked the drainage ditch and boat dock at River Grove Park after Harvey. Sand was piled up to five feet high in the parking lot, an ominous sign for boaters who might choose to use the proposed high rise marina about 200 yards east of here.

The Army Corps dredged the giant sand bar (upper left and just out of frame) that blocked the drainage ditch running diagonally through the frame.
