Day 13 Beaver Dam Day- Who give a Dam! WE DO!

Day 13 Friday of the POBR2015: ***Yes, I do have pictures, but access to internet and electricity has been limited***
[Sorry for the brief records of the day, but the blog needs to be done]
After breakfast, we met Jennifer on the docks of the Coeur D’Alene Lake. She discussed the history of the area and showed us a handmade 3D map of the area. She also handed out other material covering the history of this Lake.



Next Angelo Vitale met up with us and brought us coffee, we had a cup of coffee and then departed to the other channel project. This project was where the beavers resided.
We suited up in the Waders and then seen the existing beaver Dams, the Beaver residence, and finally the area where the local youth students built their own Beaver Dams. We spent the entire afternoon out here in the channel/forest.

Now it was our turn to contribute our efforts and build our Yakima Valley Dam. We completed a Dam in less than 2 hours and Mr. Vitale complemented us on this effort. He will keep an eye on this experimental job throughout the year, and when we return he will give the next class an update on our project.
