Nature Done Wright

Thought I'd do a different hike at High Mountain this morning — going from Scioto Drive through Franklin Clove and along the Yellow Trail all the way to the JVC headquarters — about a half-hour each way.

Highlights included a quiet Red Fox (seen only), a loud Common Raven(seen and heard), and my High Mountain nemesis bird, the Pileated Woodpecker (heard only).

I am doing some research on High Mountain hydrology, and always thrilled to come across a little mountain stream, as well one of the Buttermilk Falls with water flowing.
