One of the Powerline hills - this part of the hill suffered a bit in the flood - getting steeper. The stream crossing is also a changed. |
Slumps on both sides and a running surface about 6" wide = fun! |

Wonderful photos!
Do you know what kind of mushrooms those are? I saw them all over the place up by Lutsen on the SHT this week. I was thinking that I should have had you with to tell me about all of the plants!
Brad - I wish I knew!! Mushroom identification is not something I have delved too deeply into. They look, on the surface, similar to chanterelle's. But you really need to do spore prints to narrow down the identification. Alas, these little guys were on their way out the next time I passed by the area.
As many know, I love acting as a naturalist on a long run. It's like meeting up with long-lost friends.
This is a great time in the woods, lots of cool plants blooming. Plus all of the harbinger's of fall (fireweed and asters to name a couple).
