There are not many stands of yellow cedar in Glacier Bay. The stands that do persist are remnants of forest that were not overtaken by ice during the ‘little ice age’ which ended a few hundred years ago. This yellow cedar branch seemed to be reaching out to the flowering dwarf dogwood in the top of the frame. I can almost smell the sweet and pungent smell of muskeg when I look at this image.
