Sulfur Shelf

Sulfur Shelf
When training for our Mount Baker climb, I did the Oyster Dome trail in the Chuckanut Mountains four times, each time with a pack containing two gallon jugs of water. The trail gains 2000 feet of elevation in three miles and is less than a half hour from home, which made it a perfect training site. This was taken on one of those hikes and is, I believe, the Sulfur Shelf, a Polypore fungus that is supposed to be quite common but which I've seen only this once. It was a bit damaged but still worth photographing or so I thought.
