More history: "Once past the steep mountainous #headwaters, #streams and #rivers typically traveled more slowly and traced a tortuous path from valley side to valley side. Complexes of #beaver dams, ponds, and channels were abundant in these and in fact helped create them and reinforced their persistence. These complexes were lined with wide dense vegetation that could tolerate water-logged soils and hosted an abundance of birds and other #wildlife."
