A grove of trees that had been decimated by beavers.

In the autumn, the colors in Tierra del Fuego national park are vivid and stacked in layers. The ground is yellow with the dried grass. Then there is the white of exposed bark, and higher up the green or red leaves, depending on the type of tree. At the base of the mountains is a layer of red. Up higher, a stratum of green. Even higher, either white or granite rock. And up above, baby blue skies, if you're lucky. I was.
