Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

Gold Rush Beavers


We went to the Sierras this weekend to remember what snow (and my parents) looked like. On the way there we pass through the town of Sutter Creek and a low bridge over rushing waters, that this summer were looking awfully still. You could tell there was a dam downstream, but it was private land and we’ve had more than a few run ins with one-eyed crabby old men carrying shotguns on that creek so we were hesitant to go look.

I looked all over for news of these beavers. Nothing in the local papers or gossiped at church. This fall the water was passing freely again and we thought the beavers had been quietly killed, like most beavers are.

But yesterday’s trip over the creek spied not one but TWO visible dams, and a pair of heavy still beaver pond. The Sutter Creek Beavers are alive and well, and digging up that goldust to pack their homes and lodges.

Just thought you’d want to know.
