Majestic Evening Clouds & Fog Along Divide
Wayne Riner Photograph Thoughts...
"A light evening breeze blows the valley fog across the divide and falls into Wakenva Hollow. On the horizon is a storm lit with the last sun of the day. All we can hear is the soft sounds
of distant thunder."
*Refers to official air temperature readings as any thermometer
exposed to sunlight would have read much hotter on any day.

along the massif from Big Cherry Lake basin into headwaters of Bark Camp Lake, with local amounts under 5.00" reported along northern slopes
