The early morning view from my room at the Little River Inn.
Calypso bulbosa. Common name: fairy slipper. Native to Northern California. You don't find these too often.
Partially down a really steep ravine. Jen is taking this photo from about 30 feet above me, although she was balanced on the slope as well. The ravine continued, steep, for about 50-75 feet below me to a small creek. I think I was precariously perched on a sword fern clump. Acrobatic biology.
cool.
We look at soils using a Munsell Color Chart.
A magnesium concretion we found in the soil. Black on the inside. Tim analyzes color in the background. This is all in search of wetlands.
