This was recorded on a rainy night at the very end of autumn in a stand of Quaking Aspen trees beside Bigelow Meadow in Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. I made this recording tree ears style by placing a small microphone on either side of the trunk of a Quaking Aspen tree that was standing near the edge of the meadow. The leaves had long since fallen from the tree and those surrounding it, and the leaf litter carpeting the ground made a good sounding surface for the falling rain.
This is the second night of a three night drop rig recording I made at this location. I set up the recording rig on a Sunday afternoon and retrieved it on the following Wednesday morning. In that time over six inches(fifteen centimeters) of rain fell on the area. I was very happy to find my gear dry and undamaged when I retrieved it.
