Day 38 - First Lake

2nd Lake

Anyone that lives in the Seward area knows this trail. It is a short little trail around two little pond-like lakes behind AVTEC, the vocational college. Lots of people use the park for picnics, swimming and dog walking. A matter of fact it is such a short little thing that Bob and I decided to go ahead and hike up to one of many waterfalls in the area and back around to the Jeep Trail. There are lots of old logging trails left from the 1800's as well as trails of modern adventure seekers. Sometimes I even use the back trails to come back home but have had black bear encounters on several occasions. Salmon actually spawn in the creeks coming into the lakes. You can really get lost back in there.

  1. great insights into hiking and also just a neat way to find out what the Seward Barnwells are doing with their lives. Please keep this up after your 50th!
