The beaver family certainly noticed.
Everything is gone.
The beaver pond is gone.
The beaver den is gone.
The beaver dam is gone.
That must have been one spectacular flash flood.

The camera is ruined too. But that's small potatoes, isn't it?
UPDATE: I have a birthday coming relatively soon. The critter cam will be back, in a new and improved version. New adventures await.
No! I'm sad for the beaver and for us.
ReplyDeleteOh, nooo! 8 1/2 feet of water!?!
ReplyDeleteI hope they rebuild somewhere close by, sorry about your camera.
Went by today and the deep water pools are all gone and I didn't see sign of beaver or fish. Terrible.
ReplyDeleteSo sad to visit this afternoon-- no real signs of activity at the site; just scoured out. The flooding is still so recent that you can easily see how high the water came.
ReplyDeleteI feel sad for the beavers, but also I wonder if they can really survive there successfully with the amount of runoff every time there is a major storm. I miss watching them swimming around quietly in the evening.
(BTW the actual rise at the gage was a little over 4': the typical flow is about 4 on the "stick gage". That's still a LOT.)
