At the north end of Horseshoe Lake are a series of smaller lakes formed by multiple beaver dams. Although this is a very popular hike, you have a solid chance of seeing some of these incredible animals hard at work! Beavers are the largest rodents in North America and prolific architects of their own environments. By damming up streams and creeks they create ponds for themselves which many other animals use and benefit from.
