The Changing Seasons At Sawnee Mountain

Well, it is time for another compare and contrast blog. This time the subject is Sawnee Mountain. Actually more to the point Sawnee Mountain Preserve or as I like to call it Little Sawnee Mountain. Anyway, I have visited the park in just about every season. Technically the trip I just made is in spring, but the park is at summer leaf cover. So, I have photos that cover the park in its different stages. Some spots have four seasons, others three and some two, so here goes.
