July 2-9
 |
| The area of the trail we were working on. |
 |
| The forest was completely burned last summer. |
 |
| Covered in soil (ashes) |
 |
| View from the Dan Ridge trail. One positive aspect of the fire is that the view is less obstructed. |
 |
| Thimbleberry. The leaves make wonderful toilet paper. |
 |
| Confluence of Colt Killed Creek and Colt Creek |
 |
| Western larch |
 |
| Morels that I found while looking for rocks to build a retaining wall. Morels flourish in areas that have been burned. |
 |
| Relaxing on the last day of the hitch with my lovely morel mushrooms and organic ginger ale. Life feels great when I take my hiking boots off and swim in the freezing water! |
 |
| American dipper bird |
