I took same (or similar) photo this weekend. Any trip to wildland in West means encounter with wildfire. Crews were out in force to clear trails … covered in soot from their effort. Hard work that keeps getting harder.
Distant trees burnt by wildfire, and new growth on forest floor in foreground. Blue sky overhead.

Dryas octopetala. As beautiful and delicate as the original. These from the banks of the Horton River in the Northwest Territories.

Bristlecone Pines in the Great Basin National Park (Wheeler Peak Grove). At 3000 - 5000 years old, some of the oldest living things on the planet.
Distant mountains and quartzite boulders, old trunk of a Bristlecone Pine twisting and bleached in the sun. Younger trees (hundreds of years old) in the foreground. Patches of snow still visible on the hillsides.
