View of the ice jam on the Platte River near Two Rivers SRA. Picture is taken looking north. The Western Sarpy Clear Creek Levee (currently still under construction) can be seen on the left bank of the river near the Clear Creek channel. Flooding is noticeable above the levee on the left bank and on the right bank in Two Rivers SRA. Areas that appear to be open water within the ice jam are actually sheet ice that had not broken up yet.
