Lamar,
Could be, and there are lots of HUGE rocks in this area. The hillside I walked into has many boulders on the surface and pretty much straight up and down. You can kinda get an idea from the last couple pictures of the terrain here. The beaver are really just filling in the gaps between the hills to flood it and give them access to the Birch and Poplar. You should see the wolf trails going from pond to pond over the hills. I'm sure they used to be deer trails, but they are wolf highways now. Found wolf hair on the bottom of two Balsam blowdowns they were walking under.
I just looked back at the second picture up. If you look across the pond, by the Balsam, those big lumps around it are all big moss/ grass covered rocks. The bottoms of these ponds I'm draining are all sand and rocks also.
It's a neat area, in that if you go just East of that pond, and just West of the other pond upstream from the East pond of the contract, there is a big bog that feeds both areas. The water flows both East and West. The East pond is close to a bend in the river and flows to it, but the West pond also feeds to the river in a more roundabout way. If you saw the flowage overview it resembles a women's figure, who has a big rear end. LOL
