Through a forest, darkly

Fallison Lake Trail near Sayner, Wisconsin.

Being surrounded by a maple forest that’s glowing yellow can be almost magical.

The peaceful serenity of snow falling in a forest.

There’s something magical about being in the middle of a forest that’s been transformed by hues of a golden yellow.

Got caught in a brief downpour while hiking the U.W. Arboretum. Luckily, I wasn’t too far from the boardwalk shelter when it started.

“And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.”

Yesterday’s warm, sunny weather sent me on a hike through Governor Nelson State Park.

Another photo from Big Bay State Park.

I spent the first half of last week camping in the Northern Highland State Forest. One of the best things about that area is the Heart of Vilas County Trail.
