We came across this patch of Arctic Cotton almost as soon as we started walking along the creek. 
Notice the gnarled birch trees – it’s amazing they survive the harsh winters as well as they do!
My niece discovered this rock along the trail. How many others have noticed it and taken pictures, I wonder.
Wow, that lichen looks incredible through your camera lens!
And THEN I noticed the ♥

Very cool–you got so much depth in that shot.

Very nice. I’m curious about the plant below the lichen covered rock.

The lichen-picture has a special place in my heart (pun intended!) because we would have missed the shot had we walked even just 2 feet to the left or right
Clare – I’m not sure what the plant is, but give me a week or so and I’ll find out!
