Short Description of Activity
Dale, Forest Service Biologist showed Anne & I how to use google maps to locate beaver dams. He also discussed old activity vs. recent citing and identified locations where we might do monitoring. We discussed monitoring tools (IBeaver, paper and pen forms, etc) and what information/monitoring would be most helpful to the forest. We may have opportunities for documenting rare frog species as well.
Reflection/Evaluation
Dale was interested in working with us and gave us information how a project could fit into bigger picture plans for the Forest service and how it might tie in with other volunteer activities like campsite monitoring. He was respectful of our ideas and willing shared informaton.
