Pygmy Tea

In Pygmy Forest areas high acidity turns water a red color, locals call this Pygmy Tea.
A hard pan keeps rain from soaking into soil and flat land keeps water from running off. This slows plant growth because roots are smothered. Some trees are around 200 years old and only ten or twelve feet tall, thus the name Pygmy Forest.
Exploring the Forest during and after heavy rains can be exciting. Get out and enjoy!

The water is flowing again! Too bad fish are not running. This seems to be one of the worst years for salmon spawning in a long time. Fishing is likely to be very limited. Hopefuly the fish will come back. We all need to do all we can to insure they have a chance!

Waterfall Time!
