day 6:
this morning we went to the hills close by to check out the huckleberries. they are green and tiny yet, they will not be ready for months still. we learned about the variety of huckleberry, there are at least 3 that we learned; a red tiny sweet huckleberry, regular ones, and ones that are sticky with extra sweetness. after this inspecting the berries, we went to a lake to eat lunch and swim for a bit. took awhile for anyone to hop in. seemed like everyone was preoccupied by feeding the ducks bread, even though bread is unhealthy for them. it was about 3 when it was time to head down the hills. we got to camp for a quick pitstop before going to do the powwow infused yoga. i wasnt sure how it was going to be but to the surpise of it being motivative, fun, and a very well planned work out. but to pay for a class might be out of the question. i might have to suggest to student life or HUNAC to pick up yoga classes for the school. then for dinner, we had a feast with traditional foods. it was a good time, been a minute since i cooked like that. mr sohappy is preparing a fish to cook over a fire on a stick.

I cooked the bacon, that was about it. then even had 2nd breakfast with cristy and taylor, we had an blt. got so full, had to nap. but then at the part, there was another geocaching test. I had enough sweets when I woke up. I got that hook up on brownies from Brenda. they were amazing. then we went swimming at lake, I forgot and didn't hear the name again. it was an alright spot, the swimming area was smallish, dirty, and in my opinion, over crowded. but it was fun. that was about the day. now the sun is setting and am ready for sleep. P.s forgot to get a picture for today :(

Woke up at like 6-8 ish. Some crews had to get more early to getting breakfast ready. I was in the lucky one, I wasn't assigned a morning chore. Went to the bathroom. Its a stank outhouse, but that's the usual as in a restroom in the middle of a national forest. I think I got an alright amount sleep on the trip to our destination, lava lake. We got to lava lake about 1030 ish. Meet up with the lead ranger, jim. He went over his duty in the park, and educational background. He then introduced amy, sarah, Simon, katie, Jeff, and Cassidy. Their occupations range from deputy director, motorized recreation, civil engineer, children's forest director, fire ecology, and speclist respectively. After we got to hear about the work they do and their origins stories, which are interesting to contemplate on such as a career in the field. We went up to lava crater.
