05/23/19 - Some activity in the area


There were a few people in the parking area over the weekend, a couple campers and cars coming and going. Sunday afternoon the Moose Pass Volunteer Fire Department came to the lake to fill their trucks with water, so we watched and visited with the assistant chief for a while. They are a small volunteer department, but cover a good-sized area. All of their volunteers are EMTs and one paramedic. This lake is a mile from the fire department building, in the town of Moose Lake.




The next day a fire department vehicle drove in and let us know there would be a Medevac helicopter landing in this lot and she partially blocked off the entrance for other vehicles to come in.


A couple of days later  a truck from the Trail Lakes Hatchery of the Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association came here to deliver roughly 16,000 sockeye salmon fingerlings from their truck to an airplane to have them delivered to the ocean. It took two trips. They were 4 inches long. The 16,000 came from 12 adult fish. The weather in the morning was beautiful, but the in the afternoon it was pretty windy. 


Most of the days have been cool and windy. We've had a few nice days where we could sit outside and enjoy the sun. It's a challenge for the solar system, but we haven't had to use the generator yet!
