Looking up from the cravasse

On the sunny day the trees were just beautiful. In spring when the maples, oaks, poplars, beeches and birches are leafed out I'll be this is a riot. In the fall it must be amazing with color, but here in winter it's still pretty great -

and from the rainy day this is part of the trail leading into the gorge itself. It's hard pack snow and ice. You can see a bit of the bridge over the water (necessary in spring, believe me) at the bottom.

Anyway...still processing more from downstream. Eventually we get to a beaver pond. Fun stuff.

no, it's fine. I quite like #2 and 3. It just took me a second to figure out where I was looking. :)

I like 2,4 and 5!

2 and 4 are quite trippy :)

Thanks...yeah, they are a bit weird. Down in the gorge itself is shady and the rock goes way overhead and then there are trees lit by the sun. It's a bit surreal.
