Day 12: POBR June 27, 2024

 Day 12: June 27, 2024             The class was scheduled to wake up by 6:30am. Today we were scheduled to meet with Fisheries from the Spokane tribe. Brian Crosley, a fisheries biologist took us out to a few of their properties for habitat restoration data collection. A year ago, Crosley had some beaver dam analogs (BDAs) in their watershed. However, Crosely decided to use rocks (basalt) instead of actual wooden posts or logs. Crosley also shared how they have to build relationships with a lot of land owners/neighbors to work on part of their land. Unfortunately, this can limit their capacity of work--meaning that if a landowner isn't willing to allow them to work on their land then they can't.  Croseley also shared the history of the channel as well, where the stream that we were working on was heavily used as an irrigation cannel. Crosley's goal is to help the stream ordinate it back to a healthy stream system.           Today's activity involved measuring the amoun

Day 7: POBR June 22, 2024

 Day 7: June 22, 2024 The class was scheduled to wake up at 6:30am. We got up and then started backing up and breaking down our tents. We ate breakfast and then started breaking down camp. We left the Crane Prairie campground around 8:30am and then traveled into town. Once we got to town, Dr. Schuster dropped us off at the Downtown Bend Library to work on our blogs.  Then after that, we stopped by the High Desert Museum in Bend, Oregon. My favorite exhibit is “Sensing Sasquatch.” This exhibit shared the local tribes’ beliefs and stories of sasquatch. It was interesting to see him being recognized in a respectful manner by the indigenous peoples and by the High Desert Museum. Day 7 was considered a travel day. We finally arrived at the OSU geology field camp in Mitchell Oregon around 6:30pm. We set up camp and called it a night.

Day 13: POBR June 28, 2024

Day 13: June 28, 2024                Today we were scheduled to wake up at 7:30am. However, I woke up at 6am to shower and get ready for the day. Turning into an early bird here. Monet cooked up a big breakfast, it was fire. Very much appreciated. After breakfast, we were scheduled to meet up and start working on our posters. Dr. Black had us delete a lot of our work that was done on there and then started working on the methodologies. An hour into this grind, Warren Seyler stopped by to chat with all of us. We gathered into a circle, then Seyler had us introduce ourselves then share what schools K-12 we attended. He wanted to get to know who we are and where we come from. Then he also asked what our career goals are. So, we went around the circle to share our goals.  Seyler emphasized how important it is that we continue to pursue our degrees then work for our tribes.                 After the discussion, we went back to finish up our methodology section of our poster. Then we jumped
