This was this afternoon on the Smoky Hill River near Bill Burke Park in Salina. The City of Salina has approved spending $450,000 to remove the log jam and that should happen sometime in August. The barriers by the park on the far side of the river are to prevent onlookers from getting too close to the river bank, which could give way.
