Hiking at Arroyo Park with the Pohlmans Saturday, February 18th






In the first picture, in the middle of the shot, if you look closely, you will see a swatch of pinkish-red color, along with a large dark spot. It looks like it's under that log, and no, it's not the orange flag that is marking a tree towards the bottom-middle of the shot. This is a picture of a very large beaver eating a very large fish. We're not sure beavers eat fish, but this is what it looked like to us, and it was most definitely a huge fish. If you look directly across the stream you'll see a large swatch of that same pinkish-red. That's where he was first eating the fish before hauling his considerable hulk across the water to be more concealed from us.

In the second picture, Thomas has taken off on his own little adventure, which would have led him to Lost Lake. Lost Lake continues to be lost to us, as this time John stopped him from heading up and I stopped myself one time as I felt it was quite a hike to do on my own without the proper supplies, like water and a snack. It would just be my luck to get myself lost up there and end up in the Bellingham paper about stupid hiker lost at Lost Lake!
