Fog in the Sauerland. The Sauerland is a rural, hilly area spreading across most of the south-eastern part of North Rhine-Westphalia, in parts heavily forested and, apart from the major valleys, sparsely inhabited.

The Sauerland is the largest tourist region in North Rhine-Westphalia, in particular for mountain biking & cycling, water sports and scenic recreation.

Fog, rolling in from the Atlantic Ocean, provides the only reliable source of water for the plants and animals of the dunes in the Namib Naukluft National Park of Namibia.

Rugged Coastline, Fog by G Dan Mitchell

Morning fog clears from mountains above Soberanes Canyon along the rugged Big Sur coastline

This may be a familiar scene to people who are familiar with the upper section of California's Big Sur coast below Monterey, where steep coastal mountains drop to the shoreline and where the climate oscillates on the boundary between sun and fog. This time I visited on a day when it was hot inland on the other side of the coastal mountains — it was perhaps 30 degrees color on the ocean side.

The scene is in a very specific area close to Soberanes Canyon, but it exemplifies scenes that can be found all along this spectacular coastline. Soberanes Canyon is a popular stopping place, with access to the ocean and to trails up into the steep canyon which extends to the left below the fog-shrouded summit near the top of this photograph. This section of the shoreline is not as high as some other sections in the area, but it is extremely rugged, with a steep, rocky bluff and scores of rocky sea stacks.

The fog comes

on little cat feet.

It sits looking

over harbor and city

on silent haunches

and then moves on.

We awoke the next morning to a blanket of fog. Fog became an important theme for the next few days of the trek, obscuring those majestic mountain views at times, but lending a soft grandeur to the landscape below. Since this particular fog, unlike Sandburg's cat, didn't care to move on, this weather pattern would play a pretty prominent role later in the trip, as we were soon to discover...
