The odd thing is that hodags are starting to show up far outside their
traditional range.

i'll keep a hodag watch down here...

btw, in today's brief read in harrison's book (in "True North"), he
wrote a bit about "Bruce's [sic]Crossing" and the middle branch of the
Octanogon... (also the fence river around iron mountain)

apparently bruce crossing was once actually "bruce's crossing", but in
1880s or therabouts the possessive was dropped. (harrison didn't say
that, i remember that from something i read somewhere, and he made the
typical mistake with the name - suggesting he probably hasn't spent much
time there)
