3 trolls under the Skinwood Creek Bridge
By Bob Griffith
This was a fun sighting after crossing the Skinwood Creek Bridge! It DOES pay to look back when hiking; esp. if you're doing a loop trail!

Why we take repair gear
By Cascade Liberation Organization
Gray Wolf River BCRT. Kicking the shovel separated the sole on Day 1. Jury-rig repair with 3 spare bootlaces lasted 4 days of hard trail work. A bit of Barge cement will give this boot several hundred more miles.

eternal shadow
By sastrugi
this is an optical illusion named Brocken Spectre ... The sun was rising as my friend and I were standing on the ridge line of Mt. Townsend this thin stratus cloud moved in. It looked as if my shadow was cast across the Dungeness valley towards Mt. Baldy, with a prism of colors surrounding it. This lasted on and off for 15 glorious minutes with the sun directly behind my back.
Ludlow Falls
By Jennie Fettermann
With the crazy rain we have had lately, my family and I decided to go check out the "Falls" and see what the voluminous rain had done to our local creek that is normally not much more than a dribble - - what a suprise awaited us! Normally the Ludlow Falls is a 1.25 mile loop (perfect for the family when letting the 2 year old walk it on his own!), however due to the recent heavy rains, part of the trail has washed out, and now you can go in either end of the loop, just not complete the loop. We walked our way in, and our little creek had become a raging class 5 (according to my 9 year old) rapid - - well, we can dream anyway - but it was beautiful to say the least.
"Easter Bonnet" of Interesting Stump
By Barb Griffith
We have many pictures of this stump which seems to get prettier and more interesting each time we visit it! It is located in the campsite after the bridge crossing of the Gray Wolf River. This is a closeup of the picture Bob took which shows the variety of plant life above the fungi.
