My backyard is 60 acres and is open to the public. It griefs me how few people take advantage of it. If you're anywhere close to Raleigh North Carolina I'd be happy for you to visit.

Oh yeah definitely, my initial sentence was just a joke, at least the "disappointed" part haha. Such a beautiful picture, seems like the ideal forest to walk through.

Is there a trail going to the top of the falls? I tried scrambling up, got to the top of the bottom falls. Couldn't make it further due to overgrowth. Wondering if I missed an earlier detour trail that takes you up there

Is that why all the other parts of the forest are missing? Just the quick grow stuff.

I would go as far to say that the island has forests that are even more beautiful.
Although it has a lot of ugly ones... the logging is out of control over there.

I am sorry to disappoint lol. I have came across numerous toads in my walks through this forest and the canyon that runs through it though! They are normally very good at staying hidden, but part of what I enjoy so much out there is slowing down and observing as much as possible.

This forest is second growth, although it contains a decent amount of old growth Douglas firs (albeit on the younger side of what is considered old growth).

Although I enjoy eating tasty mushrooms, I'm not a forager and I leave everything alone. I think I've only spotted chanterelles once in the last few years but that's without looking for them.

It definitely varies a lot from area to area. I've done off trail hiking through old growth forests and it's a hell of a lot easier than bushwhacking through second growth, typically. Second growth can be nightmarishly messy and if it's in mountainous terrain the route finding can be tricky. Sometimes you can also get lucky and find a game trail that goes roughly where you want to go.

I thought this said "Froggy day" and was very disappointed to zoom in and find every leaf wasn't an individual frog lol
Beautiful though, so relaxing

Jumped off this ten times in one day, around 1996. The last time I jumped, my feet barely touched bottom and I thought that was a sign to stop.
