WI Timber

Post by jmcghee »

Hey guys- I've been lurking here for quite a while, but I've finally got something worth posting. I've been unsuccessfully trying to find/ photograph one of these guys for over a year, but recently Carl Koch was kind enough to steer me in the right direction. After about six hours of searching bluffs, and what felt like about a hundred miles of walking, I spotted this little gem... this is a lifer for me.

Very cool!
There's nothing like seeing your first timber - or any timber.
