Natural History Wanderings

New Colorado wildflower updates from the Rocky Mountain Nature Photographers Forum for 7/21/14

Shrine Ridge...The lupines and paintbrush are VERY abundant and extremely colorful. Wide variety of flowers from the trailhead to the top. I think its at or near peak, so Id get there by this weekend. And bring DEET…although it seems that the mosquitoes I encountered today didn’t let DEET stop them at all.

Porphyry Basin  is crazy with paintbrush and yellow small flowers mixed in.

Yankee Boy was OK..not as abundant as I was hoping for.
