new beaver dam
From my recent trip to Lake Conestee Nature Park.
After a long, impatient wait for the park workers to complete a new footbridge over backwater spillage from a beaver dam built this year, an interesting new trail loop is now available. And the first thing I noticed, half way across the bridge, was this nice view of the front of the new dam and the pond it created.
