之所以住到Folks 的hotel就是因为这里离Hoh Rain Forest比较近。按原计划是昨天来Rain Forest 的。今天去海边的。看天气预报今天有雨,所以调整了一下。下雨天去海边就不好玩了,而到Rain Forest却合适。
一到那里就被那独特的景象惊住了。这里的植被繁茂,树木高大,几乎每一寸土地都被绿色植物覆盖。沿着The Hall of Mosses Trail 蜿蜒穿过这片古老而奇特的森林,看到许多高耸的树和各种雨林生态。
有些树长得整整齐齐的一排,这可不是人为的啦。你知道怎么回事吗?
“This colonnade of Sitka spruce and western hemlock straddles the remains of its nurse log.Even if the nurse log had moldered completed away, the buttressed roots of the trees standing in a straight line would tell how growth began."
Plant on Plant: The atmosphere of the rain forest is so fertile that some plants thrive on air. Dining on mositure and nutrients from rain and windborne particles, clubmoss and licorice fern fasten to trunks and vranches but do not harm their hosts.
地上的一个树桩象条蛇。
路上有一些小诗。
我们在那里游玩了二个小时,把附近几个短的Trail都走了一遍。后来天气晴了,又把Hall of Mosses Trail走了一圈。
