The Mason Lake hike had spectacular views and we had perfect weather. Wildflowers lined the trail and we climbed to nearly 4000 feet.  We were so high that several small airplanes were flying below us! 

Unfortunately, the alpine lake on the top of the mountain still had quite a bit of snow so we decided to turn around without seeing the lake – plus this was our first hike of the season and we didn’t want to overdo it. The hike was pretty steep and we were both a little sore the day following the hike!  We look forward to going back to the lake!

Zvonimir competed in the Moses Lake Triathlon (swim, bike, run). He finished 3rd in his division. This is a training race for his ½ ironman in mid July (1.2 mile swim, followed by a 56 mile bike and 13.1 mile run!).

Moses Lake is several hours from Seattle and is a completely different climate. Once you cross the mountains, the terrain changes into a more desert like. It is also farming region with fields labeled so you could identify the crop being grown.
