I am very excited and thankful for the opportunity to participate in this program. We have had the opportunity to listen and learn from experts in a variety of fields as well as a chance to develop friendships within our cohort. There is nothing as motivating as finding people with similar interests and hobbies! Although our majors, degrees, and research topics often differed, a few things we all had in common were concern for the environment, enthusiasm for the outdoors, and an interest in science. I look forward to exchanging ideas, opinions, and good times with my peers and mentors throughout the summer!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">-April S.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/MRS-hike-resizes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-747\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/MRS-hike-resizes-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/MRS-hike-resizes-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/MRS-hike-resizes.jpg 404w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/MRS-hike-resizes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-743 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/PIC-at-MRS_2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/PIC-at-MRS_2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/PIC-at-MRS_2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/PIC-at-MRS_2.jpg 888w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">We went on a hike at 4:30 in the morning, my favorite time to get out in the mountains!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/River-at-MRS_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-746 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/River-at-MRS_2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/River-at-MRS_2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/River-at-MRS_2.jpg 363w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">River near the MRS flowing fast.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-resized.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-749 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-resized-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-resized-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-resized.jpg 388w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-1_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-744 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-1_2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-1_2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-1_2.jpg 545w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-2-resized.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-748\" src=\"http:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-2-resized-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-2-resized-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ciresblogs.colorado.edu\/reccs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2017\/06\/Burn-site-2-2-resized.jpg 404w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">We visited a few sites where wildfires swept through and demolished the trees and surrounding plants.
