Natural History Wanderings

Submitted by Tom Hilton

As of last week (8/27-30), Goat Rocks Wilderness (WA, between Rainier & Adams) was still an amazing wildflower extravaganza. Huge fields of lupines, with paintbrush, bistort, various daisies, and pasque flower seedheads all in abundance. Fair number of subalpine mariposa lilies as well.
