Episode 38: Spring Morning Campfire

This episode was recorded on a clear and peaceful spring morning deep in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest in Siskiyou County, California. The campfire was set in a clearing amidst a stand of large old growth Ponderosa Pines at the edge of a lava flow near Porcupine Lake. Though it is called a lake on the map, it is really a small group of ponds and vernal pools just inside the edge of a lava flow which is part of a very large network of lava flows that stretches over 20 miles down the south flank of the Medicine Lake Volcano, a massive shield volcano.

This was recorded during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. As this crisis wears on I really hope that this or any episode can provide you with a bit of solace during this stressful, anxious, and agonizing time. I hope that whatever your situation may be you are able to cope with the stresses of this new reality, and that you are getting help if you are having a hard time.
