Summary[edit] Description: Autumn colors in Kobuk Valley from bearberry, dwarf birch and willow are striking against an old sun-bleached skull from a male caribou. Both the red foliage and the skull speak to the inevitable death of all living things. White skull surrounded by red and yellow vegetation. Date: 28 August 2011, 06:21. Source: Senescence.
