19 April 2016 Newman Lake

Besides a nice small lake, Newman Lake has good hiking trails and geocaches. It was wild turkey evening around the lake. These were a few of those spotted on the way to the trailhead.

The trails are mostly flat or lightly rolling with a few climbs. Spring wildflowers made for pleasant finds.

I didn't reach the lake on my first visit. This evening I was able to visit the lake and enjoy the views, Snow-covered Mount Spokane is visible from a couple of spots along the shore. Despite the light snow of the season the peak was still showing the remains of winter's snow.
