Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge — Saturday, Jun. 27, 2020

We walked the Pine Lake Loop trail (1.25 miles) and drove the 5 mile auto loop out of the refuge. The scablands and lakes make for some really pleasant walks. We didn't make it out there early enough to spot any mammals, but we enjoyed some birds (a group of pelicans, heron, gold finches) and some wildflowers (lupine, vetches, dog rose, daisies). The loop is quite accessible for all ages. We were a little wary of ticks and avoided some of the other trails through the refuge that seemed to be more forested.
