Day 5 of 6
Friday, August 24, 2018 Got up to a drizzly day. Dan got out our tarp and made a place for us to sit while it rained. Had brought a paper back book a Western “The Green River Trail” so we started reading this. Dan had needed to work on our camp stove and needed some oil to put on the pump of the stove. To get some oil I suggested he take the fishing reel apart and so he did. It worked, now the stove was working again. We had lunch and the rain had let up so we headed out fishing again, no luck. We had the whole lake to ourselves. We decided on Saturday to pack up and head out early, to head toward Moon lake so we would be closer to the take out on Sunday am.
