Salmon Hole has definitely changed since the beginning of the year. The water level has risen and fallen, the water was frozen at one point in the winter, and the amount of green and foliage decreased going into winter. The amount of fish does not look like it has changed but I wouldn’t know how …

Salmon Hole’s Trees
This was my first time back to Salmon Hole in a few weeks and it looks very different. On my last trip, the site was covered in snow and this was a new view as well. I did not notice any of the four tree species given, but these trees are Cedar! I did see …
Spring Break
I spent my spring break in San Diego which seems as different from Burlington as a place could be. They are almost polar opposites in terms of geography and climate. The little valley where I was outside of school had so much green. The one week I go to California, it rained however I noticed …
February 15th in Burlington

This trip to Salmon Hole was a good morning to be there. Arriving I noticed the water was higher than last time. I was confused at first because there was somehow less rock at first glance. While sitting on the rocks and absorbing the sun, I noticed three different ladybugs which made me smile. The …
First Trip to Salmon Hole
Salmon Hole is an incredible place because of its contrast. The way I arrived was just as if I was in my home city of Washington DC. I skated to the bus stop and took the bus through Essex to end up next to a Domino’s. Once reaching Salmon Hole, I immediately noticed how it …
