We have added a new bushlog page to our web site:

Washout: The Destructive Power of a Burst Beaver Dam

Sometime in early July, a beaver dam burst in the Petawawa Research Forest. The resulting torrent of water destroyed several smaller beaver dams downstream and washed out two minor roads before washing out Clouthier Road, the main access road to the Petawawa Research Forest. This page documents the destruction.
