Episode 71: Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park- Calm to Windy Morning

This recording was collected on a calm morning which became increasingly windy as the sun climbed up into the sky at Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park, Shasta County, California. The microphone was set up about 50 meters from the water next to a low, shrubby lava outcrop which provided a bit of protection from the the gusty wind that gathered in intensity during this recording and continued into the day.
