Description

While on that hike near the Washougal River, I came across this patch of land that had the trees cut down. No idea why they were cut, just that they were. Waht was interesting was the pattern the stumps made. I hope you like this and find it as intriguing as I did! Thanks for all the faves and comments Mike Still feel a bit under the weather but I'm getting better, thanks for all the well wishes

I hate to see them cut the trees; hopefully there was a good reason rather than just wanting to build something there!

That is odd. Maybe the trees had some kind of disease. I know it happened to a LOT of pines in Cambria and San Simeon when there was a Pine Blight...but those look like pretty healthy stumps. Three-Grrr makes a good point about the tubing around the saplings. Nice shot though!

Great find! I really admire this capture indeed! Intriguing and certainly questionable as to the intentions of why this is left this way... hmmm.... Great lighting and such a natural and beautiful landscape to behold! Superb subject and composition!

Interesting - I suspect they may of been cut due to beetles or something where they normally patch clear - anyway an interesting capture that invites speculation.

What intrigues me most is the trees in the background, they look naked without their leaves, here in OZ the leaves stay on and the bark falls off kinda wierd how nature works!!!! :0)
