Natural History Wanderings

Oregon Wildflowers has a July 13, 2015 wildflower report for Coffin Mt. in the Western Cascades

Unlike last year there was really no beargrass blooming at all. However there were many large areas of Purple Fireweed which was in peak form and made the hike very enjoyable. Also blooming were Pearly Everlasting, White Yarrow, lavender aster and orange paintbrush.
