Now firmly on the plateau, the road loses its sandy base and becomes a grassy lane through the forest, littered with wildflowers abloom everywhere. As the grass attests, this road is little travelled, either by man or vehicle.

These lovely red berries added a colourful accent to a scene that was otherwise mainly a symphony of greens. I should know what these are, as I have seen them in many places, but alas I do not; my best guess would be chokecherries.
