Looking 50' below me, the ice fringed creek drops into a nice pool surrounded by a mossy environment.

The icy stream enters and exits another emerald pool through it's green surroundings, gradually adding more frozen edges along it's course to the ocean.

Moss draped trees across the narrow cut that courses it's way through the forest.

Virgin Creek Waterfall in Girdwood, Alaska. I'd heard about this place for decades and finally went and saw what people were talking about.

Some days hereabouts can be little short of spectacular. The upper Mendocino coast of northern California is often soul-soothing, although it can also be windy and cold. When it's calm and sunny, it's time to hit the coastal trails.
