Beaver Pond Trail

Park staff successfully reintroduced beavers into the park in the 1940s, after trappers completely eliminated them from the area by the mid-1800s. This trail is characterized by evidence of beaver activity near the trailhead. Lodges that are overgrown with vegetation, are now abandoned. The open aspen forest and sedge meadows along this trail are ideal for bird watching in the summertime and observing large mammals grazing in winter.
