When it Rains...

When it rains the creeks rise!

We had a long, hard rain Monday night and most of Tuesday.

You can hardly tell that there's a beaver dam underneath the waterfall.

This is part of the Big Creek. 

It then flows through a culvert and gushes out wide nd fast.

Lots of white water.

This is a smaller creek that flows down a hill from our old house.

It too run through a culvert - this one beneath Lorane Highway and pops out as this deep pool on the other side.

It eventually flows into our section of the Big Creek on upper right of the photo.

Another culvert beneath our driveway leads to another large pool. I am wondering if there is possible beaver activity here as well in creating this pool.

And the final rushing water of Dorothy's Creek. 

It wanders along our driveway, then twists away to enter the Big Creek close to the original beaver dam in the first photo.
