Record a stream! Mount Seymour Provincial Park

How do you listen to a stream?
How do you record a stream? 
At Mount Seymour Provincial Park, we took a walk through damp British Columbia rainforest.

As we crossed a footbridge on the Baden-Powell trail,

I really liked the sound of the water trickling down the mossy logs and across the stones into a small rivulet.   Listen!

Grand Teton National Park - A Sudden Storm in Wyoming

Grand Teton National Park

Clouds reflected perfectly from the pond as we drove up through the sagebrush toward Jenny Lake.

 The sky might be bright and sunny, but things can change rapidly in the mountains.

A white pelican! 

The park's elevation ranges from the valley floor at 6,320 feet to 13,770 feet on the summit of the Grand Teton.

 

 Storms can come up quickly as the moist air rises and cools at the peak.

Malibu Creek - Feel the Cool in Malibu Creek State Park

Malibu Creek is a small stream in a big city.

Take a walk in Malibu Creek State Park along the streambed. 

HD

Without this bit of water flowing down to the ocean, many native plants and animal species would find it very hard to make it during a California drought season.

 

The park is located four miles south of Highway 101 on 

Las Virgenes/Malibu Canyon Road. 

Or 6.5 miles north up Malibu Canyon Road from Malibu and Pacific Coast Highway {California Highway 1}.
