From Snow Mountain to Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument

On Friday of last week my view to the east changed. President Barack Obama designated the Berryessa Snow Mountain Wilderness Area as a national monument. This will make it one of the biggest parks in California. It is over 100 miles long stretching from Solano County in the south to Snow Mountain in the North. The area is home to an incredibly diverse amount of wildlife from Bald Eagles and Tule elk to a wide array of wildflowers and plants. I have witnessed the spring display of wildflowers in Bear Valley and it is second to none. Here is my image of Snow Mountain from my bedroom window. It is the taller peak in the background. It will be interesting to see how it is managed to meet the diverse needs of the people who currently use it. God's love and blessings to all, chris Image created with a Canon 7D and a Canon 100-400IS lens #TeamCanon
