- Wildflowers blooming
Nothing like long ridge strolls at 7,000 in mid-July. Peaks abounding 360 degrees around - so abundant many unnamed. Never got above 75F (Mazama was reportedly 90F+), light breeze kept (most) bugs at bay. No obstructions on trail - two very short and easy snow patches. Abundant wildflowers although still a week or more from 'peak'. Lovely water spot about four miles in. Only two other hikers in 11 miles. Will be back in the fall for the larches.
