Nice Pictures! Your daughters good with that camera!

Amazing how much you miss when you're mountain biking by at mach 3 with your hair on fire :) I should make a trip out there to do some hiking!

April - i'm jealous!

the county i live in has less than 3% tree cover and most of those trees are located in 2 provicial parks which are each about 30 minute drive away from me. 100 years ago they estimate the coverage was 80% with field grasses and swamp covering the rest of the land. now it's all farm crops.. mostly corn.

Hi all,
April, those photos are breathtaking. I really miss having large, old trees around, even if they were in the big city of L.A. Ya know, the thing I miss the most is listening to owls late at night, hooting away in the silence. No owls 'round here in the desert :(

That purple was taken at a very slow shutter speed. makes it show purple.

Was that a recent trip? Will definitely do some hiking there! We do a lot of alpine backpacking, but nothing in the rain forests of the NW.
