A sunny morning hike to the top of Lower Table Rock in Southern Oregon revealed vernal pools and a clear view of distant Mount McLoughlin.

A break in the trees along the Mount Ashland snowshoe trail revealed a breathtaking view of Mount Shasta.

Approaching clouds lend credibility to a winter storm watch.

The sheer beauty of this scene along the Camino de Santiago momentarily stopped my husband in his tracks.

Creeping reds and greens decorate the base of this leaning tree trunk.

A spectacular start to the day.

Dreaming of summer days while watching and waiting for the temperature to rise above 38 degrees.
