    Beaver Dams Close to Lower Mainland....

    Hello Everyone,

    Just thought I ask: I want to show my kiddo a real beaver dam (ideally inhabited)... does anyone know where to find one in a reasonable distance to the LM? I am in Coquitlam...

    Thanks a bunch....

    If you have access to a boat or canoe there is a beaver lodge here on the Pitt river: 49.281067, -122.699354.

    If a lodge will cut it all good above if its an actual damn you're looking for as you posted you need a smaller body of water not a river. There's an active one here in Hope I know of if you can't find anything closer its on Union bar road less than a km up from the Coq river. Big swampy area there's over a foot of water held back behind his damn it would show the kiddo what its all about.
    its gonna take a life time to hunt and fish all this

    Hinge Park in Vancouver - near Science World. Walk along False Creek near the lodge and you'll see tons of trees chopped down. We took the Beaver Scouts there last year to see it.

    Not sure if it is still there but in recent years there was always a beaver dam with active beaver in Jericho Park in Vancouver where they have the Folk Festival.
