| Comments | Wild thunderstorms today but flowers are magnificent. We visited four sites with varying microclimates but some of the highlights: Arrow-leaf balsamroot, white mule’s ears (wyethia helianthoides), fields of blue camas, bistort, paintbrush, prairie smoke, wild hyacinth (triteleia grandiflora), three lomatium species, larkspur, big head clover, northern sun cap (primrose), hairy and heart-leaf arnica, blue flag iris, buttercup, groundsel, shooting star, spotted mountain bells (fritillaria atropurpurea), wild allium, and many more. A new one for us is nevada lewisia (lewisia nevadensis). |
