Beaver live in the mountains and usually have vegatation stack piled around their holes Well that statement couln't be farther from the truth. I had Cylvertip come out and trap them at my place. I do not live in the mountain and they did not have vegatation stack piled around the holes.
piles of feed can be found outside the hole they are using at the time, that is how I know which hole to set on..

What would they be eating. I can see things change a bit but see no obvious trail routes. Maybe it's gophers.

I agree - Mt Beaver. They are pretty prevalent in a lot of the green belts/ native growth areas from Everett to at least North Seattle and Bellevue, especially if there is a gully/ small valley involved. They are of course up into the foothills too. They are probably working over any rhodies you have and even that ivy. They will climb up into the rhodies and cut off branches. I've gotten a lot of calls from Edmonds and Mill creek to come take care of them. Wish we could still use 110's on them
