The Walking Tree

This broken limb stood about 15 feet high and was widely photographed;

John Sexton and Bruce Barnbaum to mention a few . I wanted to

photograph this again as this photo was taken in the summer with that

constant haze that plaques Yosemite during that time of year. I went

in the spring and circled the park three times looking for this fallen

branch to no avail. I was doubting my memory as to it's exact location

when a park ranger happened my way. She explained to me that the flood

the year before had reached well over six feet and that branch was

washed away. Another landmark gone forever except in it's photographs.
