#Indian Henry's Hunting Ground

[mountrainiernps]

Subalpine meadows around the park are shining with numerous blooming wildflowers. Some common wildflowers, seen in this photo from Indian Henry’s Hunting Ground, are lupine, Sitka valerian, rosy spirea and more. However you don’t have to go far to view wildflowers. Paradise Valley Road, for example, has excellent displays along the roadway. Where are you finding wildflowers?

Remember, please stay on trail! There are plenty of opportunities for the perfect mountain + wildflower photo from the trails! No need to step off trail and crush other flowers in your quest for the perfect shot.
