The Bromide Hill Lookout was a new part of the park I had not been to before.
The Lookout faces toward the town.
Of course I was the first one down to the ledge! 😉
Claire, Jim, and Briar came down also. However they used the steps. LOL.
Jim found this trace fossil of a burrow! At least that is what it looked like to me.
The lichens on the rocks were amazing! The bigger gray one is a squamulose Dermatocarpon!
There were many colorful crustose lichens!
Yep colors were awesome!
Greens, oranges, and browns!
This was one I don’t recall seeing before. The gray spots are the fruiting bodies where the spores are housed.
Here the reproduction storage are in a part called the perithecium. It is the pore at the summit.
Ahhhhh, the moss was so close, but yet so far away. The question was… could I find a way to get closer???
Definitely worth the stop!
