Beaver Fever Strikes the C&O Canal!
Winter along the C&O Canal is usually a peaceful affair, but this year, a mischievous crew of beavers has been causing quite a stir! Downriver from the cozy Timber Valley Retreat, these industrious rodents have been hard at work, systematically chewing down trees along the canal banks.
While their dam-building activities can be a boon for local wildlife, their tree-felling frenzy is creating some interesting challenges. The fallen timber poses a hazard to vehicles and hikers, and the resulting debris can disrupt the flow of the canal.
But fear not, nature lovers! This is all part of the natural cycle. The beavers are simply doing what beavers do, and their actions will ultimately create new habitats and enrich the local ecosystem.
If you’re planning a visit to the C&O Canal this winter, keep an eye out for these busy beavers and their impressive handiwork. Just remember to stay on designated trails and exercise caution around fallen trees.
