East Fork Moose Creek

Description

East Fork Moose Creek in the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness of Idaho and Montana during the spring runoff.

Just after a rainstorm, the reflection brought to mind a ghostly apparition. The darkening cedar forest in the late evening did not help much with my rather vivid imagination.

Almost four years later, I photographed this again in a winter scene. The spectral appearance remained, though smaller. Travel time to this location from Elk Summit trailhead during the summer was part of one day. During the winter, I arrived on the morning of the third day.
