Salmon Creek Field Trip Report April 2017

Field trip reports
15 people turned out for our April field trip to Salmon Creek! It was a little wet and muddy at first but it turned out to be a great partially sunny day.

In spite this, Mike and I sure enjoyed being with everyone, visiting, talking “rock” and being in the beautiful outdoors. We then meandered home and stopped for dinner along the way.
