I know that spot well. My Dad and I talked to whoever was living there sometime in the early 80's and they let us fish... back when that kind of thing was normal. I remember walking past the "Andrews" wooden sign, down a trail to the side of the property.

Nice run, mostly shallow so typically better winter run water, but did catch a few summers there.

Small world.

Well, whoever we talked to was friendly, and the access was appreciated.
 
This is a seed head on a northwest native “weed,” Geum macrophyllum, aka Large-leaf aven. (I never heard of it either, until I keyed it out.). Think of a 15-inch tall buttercup. This seed head is about the size of a pea.

This is the plant.

Not sure why I enjoy chasing insects around with my phone :). My favorite plant in our yard - Penstemon venustus - has started to bloom. Not many insects on it, but got some pics. The little black guy - is it a bee??? - is by far the most common. Google image search says blue orchard bee.
