On a Mother's Day hike in Franconia Notch yesterday, I spotted dainty spring flowers along the trail. Whenever we hike, I like to look at the plant life while my kids usually run ahead. When we camped in Grand Teton National Park two summers ago, I got up early just to go see the wildflowers in the sage brush flats before everyone else rose. For me, seeing the wildflowers is just as intoxicating as the breathtaking views.
Red Trillium...
Hobble Bush...
