Daddy and Mother enjoy hiking by groves of red alder, which enrich soil by fixing nitrogen in their root nodules. Red alder, the area's most common deciduous tree (losing its leaves every year), is often mistaken for birch. We selected “America's Fjord” to be the highlight and the mid-point of our family vacation, traveling together to see North America's record concentration of high waterfalls.
