| Comments | The Panicled Death-Camas (Zigadenus paniculatus) has gone to seed but there are still a number of wildflowers in bloom, especially at the higher elevations: Taper-tip Onion (Allium acuminatum), Ball-head Cluster Lily (Brodiaea congesta), Scouler's Hawkweed (Hieracium scowler var. scowler), Heart-leaf Buckwheat (Eriogonum compositum var. compositum), Columbia Frasera (Frasera albicaulis var. columbine), Columbia Gorge Broad-leaf Lupine (Lupinus latifolius var. thompsonianus), and profuse Velvet Lupine (Lupinus leucophyllus) near the end of the trail.
WARNING: As always there is an enormous amount of Poison Oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum) along the trail, especially in forested areas… watch your step! Also, I recommend wearing long pants and tucking your pants into your socks, then performing a thorough tick check after your hike. |
