   Thanks for writing about my new watershed!  The Mt. Eddy area is a sublime headwater area - alpine serpentinites, Cascade frogs, cobra lilies - that I’ve, alas, had no chance to revisit since moving to Trinity County.  Come up for a hike someday!

   These poems really pull at the heartstrings. It must be true that you need some sadness to write this good. I can’t imagine any happy poem feeling this good.

   Btw, I had never been to Northern California. So I read these poems like I read many of your posts - with trusty google maps in terrain mode. Realized with surprise that a lot of this mountainous terrain is already covered by the google maps street view cameras!! There’s even street views from the smaller roads along the lake with names like Granite Peak Rd and Cedar Stock Rd
