Summary
Having searched around the stream for "sign" of beavers- such as footprints in the mud or sand, these trappers are in the process of setting their five pound traps in beds they had dug with their knives. Each trap was tied firmly to a tree or a pole as well as a float stick that was hammered into the mud to the beaver could not carry off the trap.
The trappers travel in pairs because of the continual threat of Indian attack.
