We have spent the last two weekends in the Mt. Washington Wilderness. My family has enjoyed this area since my mom was a little girl. It was devestated by a 90,000 acre forest fire in September 2003, destroying some beautiful places.This is our first hike into the Corbett Snow Park meadow since the fire. It was once surrounded by fir and pine trees with majestic old cottonwoods standing in the middle. The cottonwoods would normally be a vibrant yellow, they have no leaves and never will again.It was heartbreaking.
