Mountain Meadows

Summer is a perfect time to explore the high country. 

Alpine growing season is so short that plants barely become snow free before blooming. Some don't wait. The Pasque flower has to set seed before the fall frosts.

This view of Mt. Baker behind a field of Arnica and Lupine made my heart sing; then the clouds blew away and I was in heaven.
