Day 7 6/22/13

Day 7 6/22/13

Today we woke up and went to meet Jim H. from the fisheries. He took us out to...
* his office, where he displayed posters about the salmon
* The Lostine River Hatchery where we saw salmon get tagged, released, and sent out to other hatcheries. We also learned about the construction of the facility and the river's of the area in detail. While we were there we learned about the many jobs that go into that simple seeming job and building.
* Lake Wallowa to swim and investigate the geographical changes wrought by glacers 17,000 years before.

After out time with Jim we came back to the Powwow grounds to eat lunch as well as explore. I watched some pretty amazing dancers and singers. I was amazed at all their bead work because I know just how long beading takes. I also danced last night during some open dances, it was pretty fun :)

We got called back at 6:30 for dinner and then we stayed to blog and socialize.
