Spring in the Mountains

Looks like it's going to be a good year for wildflowers in our valley.  I'm looking forward to the show.  Here's a photo from my hike today of some Indian Paintbrush popping up on the hills.

Pretty soon there will be Arrowleaf Balsam Root, Lupine (white, yellow, and purple), sweet peas, Flax, and more.  Too bad allergy season is next...
