Gold Lakes, Stampede Reservoir, and weekend visitors


Hiking with good friends around the Gold Lakes area - to escape the bad forest fire smoke down our way...



Long Lake



Hiking along Sage Hen Creek towards Stampede Resevoir 






Stampede Reservoir shrunken shore - we saw two Sand Hill Cranes at water's edge just moments before.  A real treat 






Maya and Mike


Ross and Morgan




An active beaver dam along Prosser creek - we saw the builder just moments after I took this photo while having lunch at the creek shore.
