Going to Ground

Looking toward the San Rafael Mountains east of Santa Maria, California from the Santa Maria Levee Trail. This was juried into the Healthy People/Healthy Trails Exhibit at the Wildling Museum in Solvang (2021). Erosion upon erosion upon sedimentation. The lower hills are solidified sand dunes left over from when the sea level was, oh, several hundred feet higher.
