Here's where the two with the rock hard castor's came from yesterday, had two old males there today but they had regular castor's.

As you can see there's not much to eat here, i noticed today they are eating bark off the cypress tree's, knee's and even a few huge red oaks, bet that taste's good, lol.




This is looking upstream:

Sure looks like easy walking there JT. Your always complaining about all the swamps and muck your slogging thru. Why these two pics look like highland woods. Why you wouldnt even need FrogLegs!!

Yep Lee and ive enjoyed it, only problem though is i wont be here long as i can actually move around where i want to set traps instead of having to just set where i can get to, lol.

Two traps on other side (east) haven't done a thing, can tell the wind direction is out of the west here big time, lol.

Naw, that dam is all wood, lol. New road, fancy rail's/rocks, my tax dollars at work, im just trying to protect it now, lol.

Spots catching your eye for set location's probably have a trap at them, lol. Couple sets in that second photo. Beaver here never been messed with so are dumb as those white rocks, lol. Easy job.

Sleeping in culvert is no sweat as long as the bvrs dam holds the water back and doesnt break gushing you out the other end! ANother problem im told is while your zzzzzzzzzz ol Mr No Shoulders snuggles up to your warm carcass!!!!!!
