Silver Pines at Dusk

Silver Pines at Dusk

Three silver pines rest in the still air and fading light. Weathered granite welcomes hardy plants. The last of sunset light bathes Cathedral Peak. The accepted common name today is western white pine (Pinus montocola). I prefer the older name, "silver pine". John Muir calls them "mountain pines". A circle in the granite this side of the middle pine I have called the "Ceremony Circle", though I know not what ceremonies are performed here, or when. 6/30/2015, 8:17 pm.
