Sometime after its' creation, the lake became known as Beaver Lake. Here is some evidence of the appropriateness of the name. While, as a nature lover, I don't like the idea of intentionally killing animals, I have little problem knowing that beaver trappers are allowed on the property given the increase in the beaver population and the damage they've been doing to some beautiful trees.
And I actually love to see the handy work of beavers. True, it's kind of sad to see a mighty old tree toppled, but what amazing architects these animals are. And they create new, valuable habitat for so many other animals. Just another link in one complex and beautiful world.
