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

Music
If someone asked you which holiday has the
best music you would presumably rank them 1.
Christmas (peak Mariah Carey, duh) 2. Hallow-

een (the Monster Mash, duh) and that would be
it. 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.
