Trip Report

The first Obsidian Stewardship hike into Rosary Lakes to clean campsites, trail and shorelines was a big success. The weather was excellent with blue smoke free skies and sparkling green lakes. The goal of the hike was to clean fire rings and all surrounding areas. The group hiked up to Middle Rosary Lake for lunch with a view of Pulpit Rock. Lyndell gave an introduction to the "Love A Lake" program that is being offered by the Cascade Volunteers. Participants were encouraged to think about adopting their own lake. The Obsidian club will be adopting a lake as well in the future. Tin cans, a fishing rod, paper and miscellaneous junk was carried out. Everyone felt good about the experience and learned its up to volunteers to keep our forest lakes pristine with a reduced human impact.
