Gravois Bluffs storm drain

Post by Chris »

I've noticed on a few occasions the large (eight foot round as a guess) corrugated steel storm drain outfall on a creek along Hwy 141 next to the Gravois Bluffs shopping center in Fenton.

Anyone ever notice this thing?

I'm not expecting too much, but I would kind of like to explore it.

Check it out...

Drains are boring.. not much to see and they just keep getting smaller and smaller until you have to turn around.

But, I'll go if anyone else wants to.

A good friend of mine works for the company that put those in. The culverts should be connected to large drain water retention basins. You wouldn't want to be in there after it's been raining, but almost everything should be pretty large.
