The WF's

We have 4 major drainage's on our property and we've had a hard time naming them. I'm fondly naming them WF's, short for Water Falls: WF1, WF2, WF3 and WF4, in order north to south. WF1 trickles year round and makes great ice when it freezes but, it never flows more than a trickle. Pictured above is WF2, if it rains it has water in it. If the snow melts, it has water in it. 

WF2 has the longest lasting berry patch of the season at its base. Here you will find the goaties munching until spring. Once spring hits this berry patch will grow so big they won't be able to stand where the are in the photo.

This is WF3 and it flows nearly year round. It has a fun pond at its base and some day we're going to build a trail to it with a fun cable bridge across it.

This is WF4 and it also only flows with heavy rain and snow melt. It does trickle most of the year but, it is only spectacular when full. 

I waded through the wet ferns up the hill to get a close up of WF3. If you look at the first photo of it you can barely make out that it splits in two around a tree at the top. I tried to get closer to take a picture of it but the goats started to panic. They won't cross the creek to follow me and they get weird if I get too far away. Oh well, next time.
