Nadene, standing on old growth big leaf maple tree stump. I loved the gooseneck thick branch that extends out. There's huckleberry, cedar, big leaf maple & Douglas fir babies growing out of the stump.

I usually take at least one photo of a friend's backside, walking along hiking trails - on my nature hiking adventures 😊🥾🌲

One road open, one not, but getting to these seasonal ponds was a mix of #hike and thrash with a surprising number of violets found along the way.

A hike in search of #wildflowers, so I may have gone a little overboard showing them. However, I was looking for one specific flower and none of them are it! The search comes with a nice peak.

Just a short hike to get to the highest point of the Lassics, an area of great botanical interest and more: new post at https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/06/black-lassic.html

This loop may include Jeep trails, but it can only be completed on foot. I explored some ridges and met Mad River Rock. New blog post: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/06/mad-river-rock-and-devils-backbone.html

A little loop of trail featuring many lake views and plenty of benches to stop and take it in. New blog post: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/06/fir-cove-nature-trail.html

I had a shorter hike along a little stream with flowers and butterflies and the trickle of water and stabby grass seeds invading my shoes. Less said about that last, the better.

Visiting the 4th, highest, and only still active fire lookout on South Fork Mountain:

The third in a short series of visits to all the lookouts on South Fork Mountain, one of North America's longest ridge lines. I just walked up the trail as near as I could. Half of it was still there. https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/06/pickett-peak-lookout.html

It's already time for the skunk cabbage blooms and they seemed very happy with all the water as I criss-crossed Janes Creek in this multiloop route. More here: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/04/double-janes-creek-loop-reprised.html

We got a few inches of snow in the Arcata Community Forest. Some of it even made it to the forest floor with the season's flowers! Details are here: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/02/beith-creek-in-flower-and-snow.html

Into the hills out past Kneeland after the snow, aiming at the old fire lookout on Iaqua Buttes. Nice day for it.

I saw only 6 people & 4 dogs on #hiking trails in the morning.

I went out to visit with the Mad River, this time taking the more urban side of the river as it flows north for 3 miles instead of west a few hundred feet to the ocean. There's a post here: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/01/hammond-trail.html
