More from Canaan Mt.

I love to catch the light coming through the leaves as they change color.
Because it is so moist on Canaan Mt. it provides a perfect environment for Soapwort Gentian.

Table Rock







Table Rock overlook is one of the many fine overlooks into Blackwater Canyon. From here you can see the Otter Creek wilderness.

Canaan Valley

Some one turned the cloud machine on just as soon as I got there. This was taken on Canaan Mt. I found loads of cranberries and blueberries. The blueberries were a surprise since their season is usually around August. Here I am in a sea of cottongrass!
On one of my evening hikes I came across these ferns with some sort of insect hatch going on. It was quite lively.
I walked up on this little doe late one evening. She had an itch on her hind leg. All in all the weather was perfect the entire time I was there. I'll post more tomorrow.
