Wildflowers & Mountain Views

We got an early start, just after 8am and finished shortly after noon. We enjoyed the variety of wildflowers from the abundant Lupine to the surprising Cascade Lily and several varieties of Penstemon and the Columbine with a mountain backdrop. We were glad we tucked our puffy coats into our packs so that we could spend more time on top enjoying the panoramic views without the wind driving us down. There were a couple snow banks to cross or walk around. Overall a lovely hike.
