Birchleaf Mountain Mahogany

Cercocarpus betuloides

 

 

á      It has feathery, soft, white, seed pods.

á      It has white bark.

á      Hunters chew the leaves for good luck.

 

 

Comments: What made it stand out was that its bark was very white. It was much whiter then I thought! Also, it had many white flowers, and the leaves were miniature!

 

My favorite part of the field trip was jumping across the rocks in the river.
