| Comments | Considerably more lupine than two weeks ago, but the balsamroot has not improved -- what little is in bloom appears to have been damaged by frost during last month’s unseasonably cold weather. At this point, I seriously doubt that the customary hillside balsamroot/lupine carpets will materialize this year. |
