This title is a misnomer. The term "bridgehead" implies strategic significance and that's just simply untrue in this case. :)

"Under Hellbender Bluff"
12 x 16 inches, Watercolor

Hellbender Bluff is a rocky outcropping along the Little Beaver Creek in Columbiana County Ohio known for hosting one of the largest extant breeding populations of the endangered Hellbender Salamander. They are really big, up to 2 feet, and need clean fast-flowing oxygenated water with lots of rocks to hide under. Considered a reliable indicator species, Hellbenders can't survive in polluted waters.
