Escudilla Wilderness

After Aldo Leopold visited Escudilla Mountain, he was so inspired that he wrote an essay called "Escudilla." He discussed the importance of protecting wildlife and maintaining biodiversity.

I unzipped my tent slightly in order to view the evening lightning & thunderstorm.

The reddish glow is the Chitty Fire burning about 40 miles to the south.

This is Tahoe's spot in the tent. He curls up on his rug and uses my feet as a pillow.
