Thank you, and thanks for sharing just the same Dennis, some nice details and point of view!


Eremocrinum albomarginatum, Lonely lily, or Sand Lily though that moniker is applied to another more common flower.

So many wildflowers seen along the trail this past weekend. Would any of you experts care to ID this one? The same plant had pink ones and white ones.

...care to ID this one? The same plant had pink ones and white ones.

Nick, that would be Evening Primrose, white = pre pollination - pink = post pollination.

North Meadow Creek, Tobacco Root Mtns

South Boulder River, Tobacco Roots

Great shots in here! We are relocating from Portland to Salt Lake in a few months, so all the wildflower photos are from around here - hope that is ok?

This is from Mt. Rainier in 2013. Might make one last trip up here before we roll out.

WOW! Awesome shot! And yes, totally okay! This forum was born in Utah but it is much more than that. We love anything outdoors. Keep it coming!

Thanks for the kind words
here is one from this year. These were about 3 weeks early, and I knew it would be an "interesting" year.

I've never seen purple Sacred Datura before last weekend. It was like this in several places in Fiftymile. White in the center with a gradient to purple toward the outside. Is it a fall thing or something?

Not a close up, but wildflowers at Helen Lake in Glacier National park.

I experienced the Death Valley SuperBloom Wednesday. I will resist the urge to flood this thread. Searching for the Desert Five Spot was like hunting for the one Golden Egg. I swear I didn't stage the shot of the Gravel Ghost over the Desert Gold. I somehow saw it amongst the sea of flowers.

Manzanita
