Caption/Description
Strong winds and heavy snows have kinked and twisted stone birches so dramatically that they have acquired the nickname 'drunken forest.' One tree even grows with its stunted trunk on the ground and its branches thrust skyward like arms in a triumphant gesture of survival. 'Drunken Forest' of stone birch trees, near aerodrome area, Kronotsky Zapovednik, Kamchatka, Russia-MM7646
