The Cedars of Lebanon
The Cedars of Lebanon - The Chouf Cedar Reserve at Maaser ech-Chouf. Elevation: 5,300 ft.
Cedrus libani...quite possibly the most magic place I have been since the Redwoods of California.
Only 5% of Lebanon still covered in forests...some of these trees date back as far as 3000 years.
I will let the photos do the talking on this one
