Trees come together to make a beautiful picture

The beautiful Stone Valley trail is a man made trail made by LEWIS "LEW" WEEKS. His vision in the 1940s is what gives us the ability to walk through the beautiful woodlands that is the Adirondack Park preserve. These woods are beautiful and visionary. Some of the sights are things two beautiful to be scripted. This picture is interesting because it almost looks as if and architect put these trees in this exact spot so they look like a portal to the sky. It is also interesting that these leaves are still on the tree in the winter which shows they are some type of pine tree.
