ED'S OUTDOOR PAGES Fall, 2004: Vermont Images Page 1013C |
Wednesday, October 13 - A full day taking
pictures! Sunny, 60's, trying to cover as much ground in one day as
possible. Images from [location classified], perhaps Vermont's only "Alaskan" river valley, an
example of a newly created ecosystem after the draining of a lake.
Apologies for the secrecy - it is already attracting too many locals, some
of whom are leaving a mess. The area is really only a few miles long
and somewhat fragile. More Fall '04 Page 1 , Page 2 , Page 3, Page 1013A, Page 1013B , 1014, 1016, 1016B |

Our local "mystery" valley, looking south. It used to be a fair-size lake, now there are actually sandy beaches and, apparently, fish, although I wouldn't drink the water. |
Swim, I suppose. Purity, of
course, depends on what is upstream.
The low bluffs above the stream are covered with tall grasses of a kind I have not seen elsewhere in the state. Although I have not seen any, I understand the area is frequented by moose and deer.

Looking North along the stream. Great for wading on a hot July day, but not in October. |
