Sunshine and smoke, Lyons Ranch area, Redwood National and State Parks.

Bald Hills and the Redwood Creek watershed were generally obscured by smoke yesterday as this image from the trail to Lyons Ranch shows. The smoke was widespread, visible along Bald Hills road above Lady Bird Johnson Grove. Temperatures in the higher elevation areas have been in the high 80s and low 90s. This photograph shows blue sky (top) above smoke-shrouded hills (center) and dry, golden colored vegetation in the foreground. The hills in the middle ground are covered with deep green colored trees, except in the areas where active logging is occurring on lands adjacent to the park (a patchwork of clear-cuts runs from left to right in the middle third of the photo).
