Mini Waterfall

The shallow soil on this mountain (probably part from glaciers and part from deforestation) lead to waterfalls running down the rock base of the mountain. It was purty for sure.

Recovery

This photo demostrates how land can recover after a serious forest fire. This may have been from a 1985 forest fire that burned over 100 acres. You could still smell the burnt wood in the rain in the morning.
