Ousel Falls

This fall I visited a gorgeous trail in Big Sky, Montana called Ousel Falls. It’s one of my new favorite spots for a photo walk, a chance to slow down and soak in all the textures around me: pine needles, moss, clusters of snowberries, and golden leaves. It had just rained when I started the walk, so everything was glowing with tiny droplets.

The trail gets its name from the ousel, or American Dipper, a little bird that lives by the stream and dives straight into the current. The setting is absolutely stunning, and the 1.5-mile hike feels short but so refreshing! I snapped a few photos for my next wallpaper collection and left feeling completely recharged. It’s definitely a place I’d love to come back to for inspiration and a nature immersive getaway.
