Tulocay Creek for many years was a diversity wonderland for Beavers and the wildlife that thrives in and around Beaver Ponds. The primary dam was located next to a hotel on one side and an Indian burial ground on the other.
Upstream of the pond are condos and residential homes and downstream is a car dealership and Home Depot.
As I watched the Beaver Pond thrive more and more wildlife came to call Tulocay Creek their home. For the first five years or so it had a quite well maintained lodge directly next to the hotels parking lot. Every year the pond would become lush with cattails and grass and other vegetation and during the winter storms the dams and vegetation would be washed away on and off.
