As i walk along the Lolo Trail, i noticed the beautiful trees around. One of them is the Red Cedar. The Red Cedar is very tall tree with a tapering trunk. Similar to the Fir it has a conical crown of short, spreading branches drooping at ends. The needles have a very unique and aromatic smell. The tree grows up to 175 ft making it monstrous among the foliage. Some Indians we have seen have carved statues out of the wood.

ReplyDeleteWow, Austin. What an incredible collection of discoveries and observations for the mountains. Awesome pictures, really interesting descriptions. And then when you describe your emotions at the lack of plants in the terrible mountains' snow, then it really hits home as to how passionate you are about your endeavor. Excellent, excellent job.
