Light Traces of Snow
2014-01-14
In the backcountry of national parks like this one in Utah, collecting of downed or dead wood is discouraged. As a result, you can see natural falls of dead wood that persist for years and provide home for insects and other small animals. Here, a fall retains the snow that fell a week ago due to its insulating properties and provides a source of persistent moisture ideal for life.
