Hike Around Barr Lake

August 8, 2019

Richard Stevens:

High today was 84 degrees.  Winds were 14-15 mph with gusts to 30 mph during the storm.

I the afternoon and before the thunderstorm I wandered around Barr Lake (Adams).  Save for some exercise, the trip was uneventful.  

Eventually I would hike from mile 0.5 to the boat ramp at mile 7.5 and back.

At least the winds kept the mosquitoes at bay.

Nothing uncommon was observed.  No shorebirds or uncommon Gulls were found.  

The windbreak at the entrance was checked for owls and such.  Again nothing uncommon was detected.

At least the 80 degrees temperature felt cool compared to the last couple of days, especially Tuesday's 97 degrees.
