Looks like Long Lake completely mixed overnight thanks to the passing nor'easter. Time to get them out and none too soon based on the biofilm and bird droppings!

Had a great after-work hike in Loon Echo Land Trust's Bald Pate Mountain Preserve, celebrating Trek for the Trails, and catching the last sunset of summer.

Out on Long Lake and Highland Lake for last week of #LakesAppreciation month. Nice to have a working boat again - the buoys appreciated it.

Appreciating lakes by teaching HS students about #LakesAppreciation - along with streams, wetlands, and watersheds. At Holt Pond on a quaking bog. NALMS, does this count as a #lakeselfie ?
