I haven't been down below for a while. When it rains, the trail is pretty slippery, and I always end up getting my shoes so caked with mud that I have to spend about an hour getting them clean. One species that grows in the two-park area that I believe I've neglected mentioning is Oregon Grape. I took this photo in July.
