Something liquid this way comes.
Up the trail head, of Lewis Creek, you'll see more water and mini-cascades of life. The lighting is always different, and this time of the year when I went (in March, Late Winter/Early Winter) is usually best due to snow is still melting away and still filling the creek beds.
