The hike was beautiful and sunny, I would have enjoyed it more if not for the torrents of mosquitoes that plagued us. The area was a great contrast from the trail that we walked before, it was almost a solid moss bed that had all sorts of life springing up around it.
The sun was bright and when it shone through the canopy it gave things a slight surreal look. The fairy slipper was a surprise, I have never seen anything like it up close and personal.
