I had a request for current information on the wildflowers for Lake County in the Valley Fire area. Last year this was a wildflower hotspot as the area was recovering from the fire.  You can see what last year looked like at  http://www.renyswildflowers.com/2015-Valley-Fire_Nature-Recovering/  Every year is different especially after a fire and often the first year is especially interesting. If anyone has been there recently could you please post a comment. Thanks.

Good wildflower reports are always welcome and you can send them to Submitting Your Wanderings.
