Washington state Hi-lakers

I had forgotten about this group. For those interested in the alpine lakes, you should check out their website. These guys looked very organized and friendly. Do go to the header bar called "Knowledge base" and look under that for their slideshow. There is some really nice stuff here. The attached photo came from their slide show. This actually one of the methods used to stock alpine lakes, alot of it is done by horseback, i.e. hand etc.

Freakin' snow has me so #@$# off right now!

Any good hikes close to Spokane? About all I know is you have to go north...

I was a Hi-Laker up to a couple of years ago. There's lots of knowledge in that group and it meets in the Mercer Island Community Center

Actually the Hi-Lakers survey the lakes and the Trail Blazers stock them. It may be because the Trail Blazers are tougher.
