How many beavers do you think live there?
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

The ice is about an inch thick-but open someplaces and thin in others from the beaver activity. Not safe to venture out on ice this time of year. I will get some better pics when I go back out in a few days. Heres one of the sets.

Those sticks in the pond is dead brush.cant see any feed bed,just the top couple feet of the house over top of the brush.The dead brush is about 6 or 7 foot above the ice,and the point of the house is about 2 feet above the top of the brush. I will walk in the bush along the pond to get a closer pic next time I go out.The pic is from the dam.

Feed beds are usually out in front of the hut
