Our timeline should be manageable. We’ll cross off initial steps perhaps next fall depending on weather, and then probably start something next spring. I think the costs will be minimal since we’ll use local materials. We have a lot of dead and down on our property that can start getting put to good use.

Also, I found beaver activity in our lowland thicket, so hopefully one of them will start doing some of the work for me.

I attached multiple photos of recent beaver activity and one showing evidence of historic beaver activity on our land. It’s really amazing how much they do in a short time!
