Visit to the Watershed


For a change in scenery, we took a drive through a portion of the Frederick County watershed today. What follows are some of the sights we saw along the way.


A narrow gravel road runs through the watershed

Sparkling mountain stream

Large still pools are good for fishing

It was a surprise to find healthy hemlock trees

Partridge berries & dwarf ginseng at a roadside pull-off

Coltsfoot flower puffs lined both sides of the drive
