Summary
The April 1960 Beaver Beacon reported that Beaver Island deer were leaving their winter yards and appeared well fed.
Evidence and limits
The report does not count deer, identify a surveyor, or establish the location of every winter yard or any management consequence.
Open questions
- Are there contemporary game-management records that quantify the herd or winter-yard conditions?
