Last weekend I hiked out Termination Point with the dogs and a visiting archaeologist Peter. I was kind of amazed to find that the beaver pond in the woods halfway to the point has practically dried up. Peter and I checked to see if the beaver dams had blown out, and all seemed intact. So how did the pond lose so much water? It has not been that dry!
Along the coast I showed him some archaeological sites and we discovered that the point itself looks like it was the site of a pretty substantial early 20th century homestead. Of course the doggies were totally excited to go on a completely different hike than usual!
