small beauties: purely ponderosas
[ A close view of a Ponderosa tree; the outer layers of bark are scorched black, but much of the black has broken away to show the orange-tan bark beneath. ] The fire here was older than the fire at the last place I looked. How much older? No idea. I’m still learning this stuff.
