  • Draining HUGE Beaver dam. It was the widest beaver dam ever! It was 50 meters of width and it released a lot of water. I drained 1.7 meter of the water from there!

      Another New Zealander here. 1100 now. Great job on the dam. Well done! Just trying to crudely estimate the volume of water released (width x length x depth). I'm taking a pure guesstimate of how far back the lake went:
      50m x 60m x 1.7m = 5,100 m3.
      That's a decent size volume of water to send downstream for such a small catchment.
      Your videos are always interesting to watch. Beavers really are the kings of dam building in the animal world.

    I always have an image in my head of a beaver further downstream that’s built a dam, they are surveying their work when your flood appears on the horizon, they are either delighted at the amount of water filling their pool or they are saying to themselves ‘where the f did that come from?’. 😀

    What about a couple pieces of rebar welded into a grappling hook, a long length of rope and a come along.
    Hook the branches at the bottom of the dam on the deep side, tie off to a large tree downstream a way then winch it in with the come along to pull branches out, thus weakening the dam and causing a collapse.
    You'll still need to use shovels and rakes , but it might speed the process up a bit.
    Just a thought...........

    I have a 15 ft wide creek bed on my property. The water has never really been more than 2 ft deep in the 5 years I’ve been here. One day I was doing some yard work and heard rushing water. Went over to the creek to see it almost cresting the bank which would be about 5.5-6 feet deep. Here the state parks department had opened up 38 different beaver dams along the creek about 8-10 miles up stream and relocated all those beavers. The creek is now 3.5 feet deep all the time and we have so many fish in there now.
