| A
Columbia Black-Tailed Deer was grazing peacefully in the meadow behind the Visitors'
Center. He was quite unconcerned about the number of visitors who were excited
to see him. |
| I
was quite surprised at how close we were able to get before he even looked up
from his brunch. |
| Here's
a closeup of some of the peaks we were viewing. |
| Another
pretty sight were bunches of these lovely Avalanche Lilies growing in clumps at
the roadside.
Tim took this beautiful picture. |
| You
can't see it here, but I am perched at the top of quite a steep bank, taking these
pictures. It was a daring feat for me, the Acrophobic :) |
| Patches
of Spring Gold grew alongside the roadway. |
|
At
first I thought these were bluebells, but they're not. Then I
thought they were columbines or lupines, but I don't think they
are. I don't know what they are.
I'm still checking. |
| I
believe this is Hedge Mustard and Lupine, or some form thereof. |
