Summary
The March 1970 Beaver Beacon reports efforts to reduce coyotes, expected early spring smelt runs at Jordan and Cable Creeks, poor winter fishing, and limited Beaver trapping. Rogers Carlisle and Tony Connaghan were checking sets, with one beaver taken by Carlisle at the time of publication.
