Summer Outdoor Tips Beat the heat with high lakes trout fishing Legal-size trout are still being stocked in lakes at high eleva- tions – and cooler temperatures. In addition, ODFW stocks hun- dreds of hike-in lakes for back- country anglers. Switch your fishing focus to bass and warm water As water temperatures heat up and trout become lethargic, it’s time to focus on some bass, walleye, bluegill, yellow perch and other warm water species. Check out the zone reports for all the opportunities. Sign up for hunter education The fall hunting season will be here before you know it. Hunt- er education is required for all hunters 18 and under, and is required for adult hunters in many popular, nearby states. Sign up now for a hunter educa- tion course (online, workbook or traditional) or field day. Didn’t get your tag? Here are some other options. Leftover tags will go on sale July 1 at 10 a.m. Also beginning July 1 you can purchase a point saver to gain a preference point and improve your future chanc- es. Hiking Tips takes up minimum space. The ones with a hood are the best. My favorite is my Frogg Toggs Java Toads 2 rain suit. Always remember to wear a hat too. Even if you are hiking for just an hour or two, you never know what lies ahead of you. That’s part of the fun of hiking! A storm may pop up, you may get lost, or you may decide to hike farther than originally planned. Trail mix is the perfect name for what you need to take along on a hike. Don’t bother with the high-priced, in-crowd trail mix- es, fix what you like and what you need. Cashews, raisins, plain and peanut M & M’s make a great trail mix. Be prepared and ready to en- joy the great outdoors! It might be very hot when you start out at 9 a.m. on your hike, but if you are doing any high-al- titude hiking, the temperature at 3 p.m. may be 50 degrees or cooler and your hiking shorts and tank top suddenly aren’t quite enough anymore. Always bring a light jacket that weighs next to nothing and Backer DDS watching big beautiful displays from afar. Music If someone asked you which holiday has the best music you would presumably rank them 1. Christmas (peak Mariah Carey, duh) 2. Hallow- Tips via Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Tips via Outdoor World Fireworks go off last year on the Fourth. South Valley Athletics Summer Sports!!

That’s your whole list. But that would be forgetting Fourth of July music. Obviously, Miley Cyrus’ “Party in the USA” is a must. And sure, Katy Perry’s “Fire- work” can fit in but after that things get a little dicey. But if you squint hard enough, nearly any song can fit the playlist. Maybe, just mabye, Avril Lavigne’s eternal classic “Sk8r Boi” is really just a song that is questioning the concept of Amer- ican exceptionalism (“she had a pretty face/but her head was up in space/she needed to come back down to earth” this feels like something). Or maybe Drake’s “Started from the Bottom” better fits the mood. And sure, both of those art- ists are Canadian but that is not the point. Real Parades The real winner of Fourth of July are the pa- rades. They are big or small displays of excite- ment that feature people walking in a line while waving and giving out candy to people sitting in a line and waving. It is a thing of beauty. So go enjoy the Fourth. Watch Will Smith, eat great food, be with good people and absolutely don’t go on a run.
