Beaver Predictions

On Saturday, February 2nd, 2019, Bodacious Bocephus, the prognosticating beaver of Alturas Lake, climbed to the roof of his lodge and looked down amongst the twigs for any sign of his shadow. There was none to be found. He then stared up at the sunless grey sky and mumbled, snorted, squeaked and grunted the following prognostications. Although some in the crowd in attendance could not quite agree, he predicted something along these lines. Good skiing in the Sawtooth Valley until April Fools! Grunt! The snow machine from Alturas Lake will be fixed next week but it will cost a lot of money! Uggghhh! Skiing until then will almost certainly be better at Park Creek where Adam touched things up on Friday. He will return on Sunday weather permitting! Squeak, snort… The Greek shall inherit the earth! Sniff… grunt. The willows will be thick and juicy in the spring! Sniffle. The 17th annual ski fest will be a blast. Harumphh! Davinius will resign from his position as El Presidente when a photo of him in a Halloween beaver suit standing next to a trapper is revealed on his high school yearbook page. Gurgle, snort. Things are gonna get better and all’s well that ends well! Hmmmm…
