Hog Lake/Fishtrap Lake Campout March 25-26th











The theme for March and April is Geology. As part of this MB we camped at Hog Lake and hiked to Fishtrap Lake. Howard Ashby talked to us about how streams can become ponds and marshes with sediment from the erosion and build up. We saw this along Hog Creek where logs had fallen into the stream creating a dam and promoting vegetation to grow.

We were blessed with very little rain and beautiful weather.

Friday night we set up camp overlooking Hog Lake. We had a nice hot dinner of chili and french bread. Our campfire included songs and scripture study.

Saturday we had french toast and bacon with oranges.

We hiked to the inlet of Hog Lake and the waterfalls and then Zac led us to Fishtrap Lake where we ate lunch and returned to camp.

We came home with memories and a reptile-ask Daniel about his snake.
