Arkansas River Boaters Warned of Unique Water Obstacle: A Vehicle

Colorado Parks and Wildlife is warning Arkansas River boaters of a unique river obstacle.  

In a Facebook post, CPW warned boaters of a submerged vehicle. The vehicle is located a half mile below the Parkdale boat ramp halfway to the Highway 50 bridge. The agency said the vehicle was unoccupied when it rolled off the boat ramp into the river.  

CPW says there is plenty of clearance along the left side of the river but the vehicle appears to look like a flat rock barely visible above the surface as you look at it from up river.  

There is no timeline on when the vehicle will be removed, in the post CPW says they will wait until the water level subsides.
