A forested section of the South Fork Snoqualmie River at Snoqualmie Pass flows through a narrow rocky gorge lined with evergreen trees. Near the upper center of the image, a small waterfall drops into a dark pool before the river continues downhill over smooth rocks and small cascades. Moss covers parts of the rocks and tree trunks, and patches of lingering snow sit on the slope to the right. In the foreground, the water widens into a calmer green pool with a shallow gravel edge visible beneath the surface. The image feels quiet, cool, and tucked away deep in the forest.
While I was hiking up to Franklin Falls this past weekend, this stretch of the South Fork Snoqualmie River caught my eye.
What I liked about this scene is the small waterfall tucked into the bend and the way the river flowed down through the rocks into that pool below.
