Taken on the way to Dream Lake near Nymph lake in Rocky Mountain National Park. Was standing in front of the tree and was looking at our work in destroying nature .. was sad to see the aspen trunk.

Good post for this gallery and a good photo. This sort of thing has been around for a very, very long time though.

Thanks Charlie - yes I have seen this quite a bit around too, mainly with aspens.

It's a very old tradition with quakies, and seeing it, I always wonder just how old the "art" is. I agree that this is as unsightly as painting on rocks and defacing of petroglyphs. I like the way you've framed this, showing not only the damage, but also a nicely composed shot including good fall colors. The light on that trunk is just right to "sculpt" it and help it stand out.
