Tiny Fenced Paths in the Enchanted Forest at Honeyman State Park (+5 insets)

(+5 insets)

Very quick post today!

Today's Picture
This is what greets the lucky hiker who makes it to this point if walking several miles to get there from the Honeyman State Park campground. I just about fell over with this incredible sight! Light streaming down through the conifers, shadow lines across the trail, and tiny log fencing covered with moss to show that the path is a loop! It is a magical place and feels wonderful to walk through.

Today's Insets
Inset #1: The Salmonberry trees were in full bloom and shed their petals like magenta-colored snow. I found this petal sticking to a fern and thought it was too beautiful to ignore!

Inset #2: Fuchsias, including this droplet-covered bud, loved this environment and there were many planted bushes around the campground to admire. These plants are native to Central and South America and are commonly used as an added shrub to Oregon parks.

Inset #3 & 4: On my way to the trail to the forest loop, I walk along Cleawox lake, and in a little feeder stream I found this gorgeous Skunk Cabbage blossom. They are simply magnificent! I would have to say though, that I've never noticed any smell from these plants, even when I've walked through a massive patch of them in bloom. I love these plants with their HUGE leaves that glow with the light shining through them. The flowers are equally treasured and I feel so happy whenever I am lucky enough to see them!

Inset #5 & #6: Here are another pair of pictures to show the sand dunes that are so close to our campground and encompass one side of Cleawox Lake. I loved them!
