Wildflowers 2015
Seems like it's about time for this summer's thread on wildflowers. Post 'em if you got 'em (wildflower photos that is). I think it's useful to also give the location where the photo was taken. I got nothing, yet.

Re: Wildflowers 2015
Any idea how the wildflowers should shape up for the last week of July in the RMNP/Berthoud Pass area? Hoping to get some good ones, but with the heavy late-period precip this year, I'm wondering what to expect.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Wildflowers 2015
The Infian Paintbrush that is blooming near Wilkerson Pass right now is unreal. Mostly on the western side, but it's really thick this year w the moisture.

Wow, that's a fantastic shot, Pilgrim. Love the detail and drops of moisture on the flowers.highpilgrim wrote:Desert evening primrose, San Luis Lakes State Park

No one said "Colorado Wildflowers 2015," so here goes.

Re: Wildflowers 2015
This was up around the James Peak area, the lakes below it actually. The odd looking background is clouds reflected in the lake. Lots of smallish flowers are out. Even a few stray Columbine.
