You'd never beleive it, but I've photographic proof; I saw a nice cow moose in the early morning on the way to the trailhead!!! I followed her around to an old clearing and hung out for a while, watching and listening. She has no babies...
These were in bloom in her area.
To start the hike I ventured over to the Falls Way for the nice mossy Snyder Brook. I like the trail that hugs the east side of the brook...less traffic and a pretty trail...
An owl was perched and hunting and watching me and waited until I was in scare-the-wits-out-of-me-range to fly off. I was down on a knee, watching it fly to another perch with thumping heart...
Owl wouldn't let me get any closer. I must have interupted breakfast hunting. But she lead me to a wonderful find. This jawbone tells a story. We can see that it was a young moose. An expert may be able to zone in on the exact age. We can see that the baby teeth were being replaced by adult teeth at the time this young moose fell. I just stared and wondered what story unfolded here.
There is something special about the forest of the northern slopes of the Presidential Range. This wildflower is common in these areas ID help would be appreciated. This is along the banks of the Snyder Brook.
This is one of the beautiful falls along this mossy brook. What a special place..
