First trip out this year on a nice sunny day.

Out to the gorge where all the flowers are kept. The Oaks haven't budded out at all, but the bulbs are starting.

Lomatium columbianum, a wild Parsley. It lives in a nice spot.

There were a couple Saxifrage hanging on a rock.

There were thousands and thousands of Olysinum douglasii.

The photo doesn't do the thousands of little purple bells waving in the warm breeze justice.

Out of the thousands (maybe millions) there were two white ones.

A little Crocidium multicaule.

The Fritillaria pudica were also blooming. Hundreds if not thousands.

They usually don't clump and they're so little that a photo of a grand sweeping view with hundreds of dainty yellow bells is unimpressive. Here's a couple together.

A placid lake with frogs calling.

I walked down to this bizarre rock formation. Neat to climb around on.
