Quiet Wetland

Yesterday I made a long trudge up a very old road in one of the side drainages in Center Creek.  I had accidently discovered the road a year or two ago, but had not gone to the top because there was too much snow at the time.  There was very little snow yesterday, so I kept going up.  Eventually I lost all sign of the road (I doubt it has been used as a road for at least fifty years) and thrashed my way up a draw into the saddle.  There I found a perfect basin with a wetland that may have been a small lake many years ago.  It was beautiful, but I had to hurry down because darkness comes early in mid-November.
