Latest Aerial View of the Malibu Lagoon

Below are recent aerial photos of the Malibu Lagoon from State Parks...



Lagoon opponent Andy Lyon had this to say about the aerial pictures posted on PATCH this morning:

Look how much water is in there now ....so unnatural !
I crossed the bridge back in Cross Creek a couple of days ago and its close to 3 feet deep back there. It's called Cross Creek because you could cross the creek , right ? Not anymore...without the bridge back there , no way. You used to drive right down into and across it. This lagoon is holding water all the way back past serra retreat.
The 411 response:
Andy's theory defies logic and physics. Can Andy really say with a straight face that the restoration is causing the closed off lagoon to back up higher into the creek towards Serra Retreat?? Seriously? That is a hydrological impossibility. It backs higher because the water levels are high nearing the crest of the berm! Is Andy is claiming the restoration causes more water to come down from the upper watershed?
