Moving to the Forest

Last week, I was in the Book Cliffs looking for dead wood.  This week, I want to move my work to the National Forest.  Thus far, the snow has been too deep, but, after a few 70F degree days, things are starting to open up.  I'm interested in this north-facing Douglas fir stand overlooking Bob Wright Canyon.  As the pictures show, the south-facing slopes are snow free, but my area of interest still requires a little post-holing:  My boots were wet when I got back to the Chev.  At any rate, I sampled one tree with the increment borer and, barring a late season blizzard, I should be able to start working out there later this week or next.
