Winter Wanderings - Deception Pass 1.13.13

It was a beautiful, freezing cold winter day at Deception Pass.

Chiton on the rocks.

Pillowy moss all around.

I never realized lichen was so spiky on the underside. Maybe just this time of year?

Frosty kelp.

Ice crystals pushing up from the soil.

Succulents.

Icicles on the beach.

Frost shadow.
