Hiking
At the end of this enormous Aspen grove, you get a great view of Yellowbush Flat towards the Horseshoes. Aspens have evolved flattened leaf petioles to aide in their survival during high winds decreasing the likelihood of trunk or branch damage. The bark is also photosynthetic, allowing growth even after the leaves have been dropped for the winter.
