Oregon Butte — Saturday, Jun. 10, 2023

It was our first time getting up here after the fire in 2021.  Still very beautiful, we spent a nice night at the campsite in the trees fairly near the lookout.  Flowers are blooming but lupine and balsamroot haven't started yet, so you've probably got another month of nice blooms to look forward to.  
The lookout is not yet staffed.  There was no snow to cross.  No mosquitoes or ticks spotted, but lots of butterflies and small flying thingees of indeterminate species.  Not many people up there, as usual.  Road was fine.  We saw no morels.
