When the kids and I were first getting into backpacking we visited Siouxon Creek many times. On Sunday I visited it for the first time since a wildfire in 2020. Before the fire it was a magical river valley of second growth forest so these burn scars were pretty heartbreaking to walk through but there was more surviving forest than I expected and the trail was in great shape.

The way the forest was rebounding was heartening. Native undergrowth has surged up in the burn scars sometimes taller than I am. Down near the ground I found a carpet of little seedlings. Give these little guys a few years. 🌲
