Carol Leigh mentioned on the Calphoto forum an article on Wildflowers at Big Bear, which is better known as a ski area in San Bernardino County. You can read the article at: Who needs snow? Wildflowers are blooming at Big Bear – Southwest Riverside County News | Riverside, CA Local News.
The Big Bear region has more than 20 endemic wildflowers . You can visit the Baldwin Lake Ecological Reserve where there are guided wildflower hikes led by a botanist and volunteers of the Southern California Mountains Foundation. The free interpretive hikes are at 11:30 a.m. each Saturday now through June 29. The best time to visit for flowers is April and early June.
