McGee Creek Revisited

June 24th, 2016:



June 18th, 2019:



Difficult to believe!  That was looking west, down stream from the bridge. Now let us look  upstream on July 2nd 2016:



And on Tuesday June 18, 2019:


Evidently the cattle have not been using this pasture recently this year - maybe one ought to contemplate growing wild rice or "manoomin "   and let the beaver help. Would the Conservancy enter into a partnership with the grower to help sell the rice? Maybe one could encourage the beaver to build the dam upstream from the bridge to increase the flooding- However, from time to time, the dam would have to be lowered to maintain a flow of water needed by the "manoomin". Let global heating come!
