Patches of burned area, such as this one, are surrounded by untouched forest.  Weird, but this is a pattern that repeated itself all over the place.

Here the ground is completely barren, still covered in ash.  The rocks are scorched black, and nothing is alive.

I thought this was cool, with the dead/black and the green behind it.  This is the "middle" pond just west of the upper lake.
