research performed @ Jo Jo Lake

involved seining of stickleback (for phenotyping & crossing) and hunting for sculpin (for collection)

the view at Jo Jo lake

I took the second and fourth picture sitting in the middle of the lake (on the Zodiak) looking east; you can see the mountains past the ridges. The other two pictures are looking west. The first one is the sunset from my tent:)
