The Paracas Candelabra, also called the Candelabra of the Andes, is a well-known prehistoric geoglyph found on the northern face of the Paracas Peninsula at Pisco Bay in Peru. Pottery found nearby has been radio carbon dated to 200 BCE, the time of the Paracas culture. The design is cut two feet into the soil, with stones possibly from a later date placed around it. The figure is 595 feet (181 meters) tall, large enough to be seen 12 miles at sea.

There's something charming about mushrooms that still have a bit of dirt on them #fungifriday #fungi #michigan #dunes #mushrooms #earth

A puny white mushroom that resembles the shape, size, and smoothness of a sparrow's egg is surrounded by leathery beech leaves and twigs. The stipe is about a third of its cap's diameter, which is kissed by a single needle of a hemlock tree, and maybe seven or so bits of soil

A mushroom whose cap has the rumples of an old stool cushion is peppered by strands of rich, dark soil and has emerged from an avenue of very thin, gentle grass

A pale amanita mushroom sticks out from a dune side wearing much of the punctured sand atop its conical cap, which resembles in shape the kind worn by rice fieldworkers. Just beneath the cap is a flowing, subtle annulus that wears like the skirt of a sundress. Behind, an oak tree still bears green leaves, blurred and tilted

A hockey puck-sized white "true" mushroom is shown from the top down, as if it's a meringue-topped pie that collapsed somewhere in the middle, but dusted vaguely with cocoa powder anyway. A thin tinsel of forest debris kinks across the surface. The mushroom is nested in pine needles and some crispy remnants of leaves

Bear Cave Campground, Buchanan MI - Aug 2023

It was my 40th birthday weekend trip, and the whole weekend was beautiful weather - 70s-80s in the day and chilly enough for a fire at night and in the morning. There was no wifi or cell service, but we were able to keep busy. There was a lodge with a couple cool old arcade games (Die Hard, 18 Wheeler, Crusin' World to name a few) and a couple pinball cabinets.

Friday we visited Bear Cave. It cave was much smaller than we expected (about 150 feet in length), but we learned that the cave was used to hide slaves in the underground railroad. We're going to plan a trip to a bigger cave outside the state next year. We filled the rest of the first day with a fair that was going on a couple miles away. Lots of rides and show animals, and of course fair food :blobcatjustright:. Youngest daughter had to ride the ferris wheel, as is tradition.

Saturday we visited Warren Dunes State Park to climb some giant sandy hills and swim in Lake Michigan. I climbed the tallest one, then my youngest decided she wanted to go up, so I climbed it again with her, and another one after that. Then a dip in the lake to cool off, and back home to hang out by the fire.

It was fun and I'm glad we went but I can't say I'd want to to back for a few reasons. I won't list them here as it'd risk raining on this mostly positive post.

On our way home from Mesa Verde we stopped for a little while at Great Sand Dunes. It was hot and muggy as it had just rained. I left this distant person in the shot because it gives it scale, but, I believe, still qualifies as abstract even with a distant person in the shot. #GreatSandDunesNationalPark #Nationalparks #sanddunes #abstract #dunes #wandering #onthewayhome #westernparks #nature #explore #explorenationalparks #sonya7r4 Photo Location: Great Sand dunes National Park, Colorado, USA

I love the interplay of shadows and light on sand dunes. When you're there early in the morning and after a windstorm, the purity of blue shadows and golden morning light feels inspiring.

one person speaking with two others facing them on a beach. In the background is a sand dune, to the left of the speaker, the sand dune is stable and has grasses growing on the surface. to the right of the speaker the sand dune vegetation has slumped and lots of bare sand is visible.

Sandy Lawrence

AAAS: "In a twist, beach grass could make dunes more vulnerable to storms."During hurricane, dunes take brunt of accentuated wave action. Land managers oftem advocate planting grasses + other vegetation to boost integrity. Scientists study dunes in large metal troughs called wave tanks, but typically only several meters in length + trials last an hour. But Oregon State University has a104-meter-long flume. Brought in 500 cubic meters of sand + spent wks sculpting a beach + dune, then gave 6 months for bitter panicgrass (Panicum amarum) to grow and establish roots. 'Experiment simulated 19 hours of wave battering in total.' But every half-hour halted to scan the shape of the dune with a laser. [Experiment repeated with identical dune bare sand]. With bare sand, waves removed sand but slope remained the same. But with dune anchored by plants, waves excavated sand in front of vegetation. "These divots grew into larger depressions as more erosive energy was concentrated in a smaller area, because the grass blocked part of each wave." After 14 hrs, the waves had carved a 79 cm vertical face of sand called a scarp. Then the erosion rapidly accelerated against the vertical face of sand. "Overall, the vegetated dune lost 22% more sand than the bare dune because of erosion." But bitter panicgrass has fewer roots than other dominant species on dunes, + plants helpd dunes rebuild after storms because they trap wind-blown sand. As always, more research needed. #hurricanes #dunes #grass

Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Death Valley National Monument, California from April 1984.

A decade later this became Death Valley National Park. An unusually rainy spring brought fresh green even to the floor of Death Valley, although temps climbed above 90 by noon on this early April day. The small animals that created all the paw prints did not appear during the day.

A deep blue cloudless desert sky. Pale beige sand dunes showing the tracks of many small animals. A large green leafy shrub to our left, 2 more atop a dune ahead in the near distance. Rugged dark gray naked rock mountains rise from the edge of the valley floor beyond.

Tide pools on Mattole Beach. Dark rocks with water pooling in the low spots. There's more rocks scattered in the water beyond and waves trying to crash through them. A distant marine layer sits on the water and there happens to be a small boat in the distance to the right.

Striped shore crab. Claws, light on the inside, deliver bits of kelp to the mouth of a small crab just under the water. The crab is mostly dark colors with light green stripes and molting on its shell. Around the crab is a bit of green algae and rock above the water.

Mattole Beach. Standing in the dunes looking out to the dark sand beach. One section of the beach has dark rocks at the water that extend out a little. There's a distant fog bank, but otherwise the sky is blue.

Sandy path through dunes at Mattole Beach. A sandy trail winds between light green plants, some of them showing purple flowers. To the right are green hills and to the left is the Pacific Ocean. Ahead are more hill ranges. It is all under blue sky with a distant fog bank.

Walking through the rain towards the ocean. Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, March 1984.

A storm is ending, but the rain is still falling at this early point in my hike, helping create this moody panorama. I am hiking through a very broad swathe of sand dunes along the Oregon coast.

As the rain clouds begin to break up a bit we are walking a trail through light rain towards the nearby ocean. We are crossing a very broad swathe of sand dunes along the Oregon coast. Some of the dunes are covered with groves of evergreens, others tall golden grasses, and many are just barren sand dunes.

Waves of sand dunes in soft pre-sunrise light.

As per the usual plan, we headed out into the dunes in darkness, arriving at a likely location for photography while the sun was still below the horizon. At this hour the light is very soft and the colors subtle — the intense color of sunrise doesn’t arrive until a bit later. Often it is nearly silent, especially on a windless morning, and the sunrise light show begins quietly.

Mesquite Dunes II

Mesquite Dunes is the largest and most accessible sand dune in Death Valley. Located just east of Stovepipe Wells.
The round trip hike out to the largest dune (pictured here) is a 2 mile out and back and takes about an hour and a half walking in sand and seems to be twice as far as it actually is because of this.

Having early morning coffee Oceanside, on a weathered grey Adirondack bench, listening to the soothing sounds of the rolling waves onto the shore, with the fresh green-yellow seagrass coming back to life on the beach dunes, smelling the fresh sea breeze, feeling the warmth of the sunshine… pure serenity and peace.
