Powder Valley: Hickory Ridge Trail

 
 
I took the long loop, naturally.
 
 
 
Those ramps off in the distance are the Interstate 44 & 270 interchanges.

 
 
Moss growing right there in the cracked asphalt...

 
 
The side of a boulder

 
 
A bucket stump!

 
 
A pretty lady

 
 
Make that two.

 
 
How long have those rocks teetered there?

 
 
Amazing roots along the water's edge

 
 
Nice hoof print in the moist creek bed

 
 
Another bucket stump!

 
 
The buck is straight ahead, under the setting sun.
The doe is to the left, near the boardwalk.

 
 
You can almost see his breath; and look at the sunlight on his antlers.  Majestic!

 
 
His friend was just down the trail, blocking my path for a few moments.
