We just returned to the cabin from a four mile river hike along the
Nooksack River called the Horseshoe Bend Trail. Star says it’s her new
favorite river hike, which is a strong statement considering we have hiked
the Chattooga, Snake, Elwha, Yellowstone, Saluda, and Teton amongst many others. The foliage is green like home, but that’s
where the similarities end. Huge ferns, moss hanging from trees six feet and more in diameter, berries, tiny flowers, and hard woods with leaves bigger than my head crowd the trail. (That slightly overblown sentence is courtesy of Star.)
A tree grows out of the stump of a former Douglas
Fir tree.
I'll buy a beer for the first person to tell me what this is growing from this tree. A fungus?
