July 13, 2019 

Today was a easy day, I finally got to sleep in and it felt good, but I still woke up around 7:10AM and we had a really good breakfast ( bacon, hash browns, oatmeal with brown sugar, blueberries, bananas, and honey if you wanted) 
After breakfast we edited our blogs a little bit then went to go set up our trail cameras. Then we got to little lava lake and it was really fun except for the fact I almost died because I cant swim I can only float because if I can’t touch the ground I freak out but it was still fun to learn the hard way.

July 15, 2015  We met Tom Walker and Trent  they took us to save the native plants by pulling out the non-native plants at a marsh pit by putting waders on and pulling out the weeds. It was really gross at first but after awhile I got used of it and it was a really great experience, my foot got stuck in the mud and I almost fell into the pond and it was scary because I had my phone in my pocket. Luckily it didn’t get wet and we were all safe. Except for some of the students fell in. After lunch we went with Pete Powers to go save the Aspen trees, when we first arrived I wasn’t ready but once we started working it was really fun, I fell down a couple times but it was cool, we got to help the Aspen trees grow by cutting  the other plants around it. We took a little break and went tree riding  with Grayson Mesplie.

July 17,2019  Alex took us to Klamath fisheries and water laboratory where he talked about the dams and how they want to get rid of them so some of the fish can come up stream. He also mentioned that the lost river sucker and the short nose sucker is endangered. The oldest fish they have found was about 50  years old (lost river sucker) and for the short nose sucker was about 30 years old, you can tell how old the fish are by looking at their scale under a microscope and it has little rings (like a tree) that you can count and it’ll tell you. The short nose sucker fish can live up to 33 years old and get 35 inches long. Females produce about 44,000 to 218,000 eggs. Adults deposit eggs in gravel bottoms. Most of the fish know where they spawn so every year they go back to lay eggs.  Jeff Mitchell arrived at our camp in the evening. He welcomed us with a song. After which he began sharing a little bit about how the sucker fish were made and why they stopped harvesting them and why
