WILD LANDS_ALASKA: TONGASS FOREST_1
V8V5986
In an undisturbed Temperate Rain Forest such as Alaska's Tongass Forest,
the trucks of fallen trees provide the perfect environment for mosses and other small plants such as dwarf dogwood. The truck of this old tree provides a platform above the wet ground below where only very water tolerant species such as Skunk Cabbage can survive.
