At our last trip of the year to Jasper Ridge students were sad to say goodbye to the place that they have gotten to know so well over the course of the past few months. The trip was bittersweet as students have grown attached to Jasper Ridge, but also are excited about our end of the year trip to Monterey next weekend, and our BBQ and awards ceremony during finals week. Byron, Viliami, Luis, and Jack goof around with some of the scientific equipment during a photo shoot session. Rina, Luis, Tony, and Viliami use tools to figure out how to measure the turbidity of the lake water. On this last trip to Jasper Ridge we focused on learning about water and the animals that live in it in preparation for our trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Elkhorn Slough next weekend.
