Yesterday I went to Bear Valley. The Adobe Lilies, Fritillaria pluriflora were nowhere to be seen. Not even any foliage. Very little was in bloom except for some paintbrush on the way in some patches of goldfields in the valley. We went a short way up Walker Ridge and did find Checker Lily Fritillaria affinis and some large Manzanitas in bloom. On the way out we did get to see a Hooded Merganser.
