And looking up was an amazing experience.
One of the many things that fascinated me the most was the moss covering all the trees, rocks, and fences.
The fence appears dwarfed by the gigantic trees.
But it was real size. But I think the best fence photo is this one.
There is a local tradition of putting pumpkins along the fences at the entrance to Cathedral Grove at Hallowe'en. We were there in mid November so all the pumpkins were still out in full force. What a great site. There were pumpkins at various places along the road leading up to Cathedral Grove as well. No one seems to know how this tradition started and you can find a few versions on the Internet, but I hope it continues for a long time to come.
It's time for Friday Fences, so hop over and see some other great fence photos.
I love those huge trees, and the pumpkins all along the fence!!! I am not sure what I would think of all that moss, but it has got to be better than the freezing rain that is keeping me inside this morning. I am also in zone 5b, Ontario...
ReplyDeleteFreezing rain here too Judy, a good day to stay inside.
DeleteLinda truly an enchanted forest! My in laws live on the island so I will forward your site to them. Stunning images! I adore moss in the forest I feel as though fairies are tending that area!
ReplyDeleteThanks for forwarding on my site.
DeleteI can just feel my lungs filling with fresh air as I look at these photos. I really must make it out to BC sometime!
ReplyDeleteThere is so much to see and do, it is really worth the trip. We can't wait to go back.
Deletewhat a stunning place to visit. I agree we must have a trip to the west coast one day also.

Beautiful, I still remember the height of the trees so spectacular.
ReplyDeleteDid you see me wave on your train ride? I was the one standing beside the giant White Rock, on the beach, LOL. Your train ride would have taken you right past my favourite spot to shoot the morning sunrise...

I was on the look out for you, and you must of been that speck beside the rock.
Deleteoh, very nice! the moss is enchanting!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos! Love the contrast of size with the fence.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to visit there...that shot looks like one of my granddaughter's toys next to those trees.
ReplyDeleteThat third photo with the fence behind the trees really puts into perspective just how big these trees really are - awesome.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the pumpkins on the moss covered fence!!!
The fence sure does look small doesn't it?
DeleteThese are some of the most interesting pictures I've ever seen. Love the moss. And the sizes of the trees is unbelievable! How I would love to see this in person. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe trees are so huge and tall you can hardly see the tops when you look up.
DeleteLove, love those pumpkin heads upon the fence!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this photographic shoot very much; I'd have loved to do that walk amongst the tall trees and mossy places
ReplyDeleteThose trees really do dwarf the fencing. WOW! What a gorgeous spot. Nothing like that here in VA. The pumpkin heads are so cute for Halloween. Your shots are lovely. genie
ReplyDeleteWhat a magical place to visit--almost prehistoric in feel. And your photos captured the age and lushness of this forest. I too notice moss growth and have never seen it so thick. Pumpkin tradition should be continued.
ReplyDeleteWow...those trees are magnificent!!! Love the moss on the fence..it really gives it charm!
