Robert W. Haight gives a thoughtful and incisive possible solution to the beaver problem in the Dredge Lake area but I have to wonder - just how...

...park than a wild ecosystem; fewer natural predators exist to keep the beaver population in check. I am not proposing beaver genocide, but trapping a handful would help. We could give the meat and pelts to charity. Robert W. Haight Juneau

...jug, buy some tackle, a six pack, bait or snacks before a day on the water? My hope is that the owners are able to recover from this tragedy and rebuild. If not, then to them I say, "Thanks for everything." Robert W. Haight Juneau

...tooth-ravaged cottonwoods just fallen or soon to topple. With the blessing of the U.S. Forest Service, I'd like to see the surviving cottonwoods near the lakes protected with metal buffers - before it's too late. Robert W. Haight Juneau
