Summer Dance - Gallatin National Forest, Montana
The ephemeral, summer dance of arnica and lupine swarms about the stoic trunks of aspen. This montane meadow within the Gallatin National Forest redefines the term natural resource. The white powder on the photosynthetic aspen bark provides ultraviolet protection and was once used by Native Americans as sunscreen. Arnica is still used today as a topical salve for healing bruises and sprains. Endlessly renewable, a wild meadow can be a balm for both body and spirit.
