Here we are
in the woods near Mountain Loop Road. Big Leaf Maples were sprouting
all over the place. |

Down the hill
we scrambled and clambered, to a lookout just above the North Fork
of the Sauk River. What's Tim setting up to take a picture of? |
|
It's a beautiful
waterfall. The water thundered over the rocks with an incredible
force. You can't tell from this picture but the path was narrow,
steep and rocky, and the rocks were wet and slippery. I had vertigo
to the max! |
|
Here's the
view looking downstream from the waterfall. |
|
Miles upstream,
the water still crashed along at an incredible pace. We saw some
folks white-water rafting and kayaking on this river. |
|
A peaceful
scene greeted us on our drive along the Concrete-Sauk Road. We'd
hoped to see eagles here, but no such luck. |
|
The yellow
plant is Scotch Broom and it is literally everywhere! I know it's
an unwanted weed, but it added such a lovely touch of bright color
on this generally gloomy day. I thought it was beautiful. |
