Natural History Wanderings

Wild in Arizona has the following wildflower and fall color report:

Spring is still showing carpets of goldfield flowers on the Mogollon Mesa for the next week or so. For directions and best spots see page 134 General Crook Trail in our Wild in Arizona, Photographing Arizona’s Wildflowers Book. And yes the carpets are a month late this year.

High Country aspen are showing lots of color now – Highway 67 to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon is just past peak ( don’t forget as of this post the park is closed ). The San Francisco Peaks are showing a eclectic color show with Green, Yellow and some brown-out. but overall great color this week and next in the Inner Basin, Snow Bowl, Harts Prairie and Bear Jaw. White Mountains are about the same with great color over by Greens Peak.
