Beautiful beargrass with lovely lupine in the background.





Tin Cup - June 2020.

After our picnic lunch up Lost Horse on a beautiful day earlier this month, we headed further south to enjoy an afternoon hike up Tin Cup Creek. 

In addition to enjoying the abundance of wildflowers along the way, we also watched some small wildlife and heard and saw a tree fall not very far away from us! Like I often say ... you just never know what you will come across in the mountains. Always be prepared for anything and everything out here! :)

Chipmunks tend to keep themselves plenty busy in the woods. -- Lots of lupine everywhere!

It seems I'm not the only one attracted to red clover.

False Solomon's-seal leaves and flowers contrast in size.

The flowers of mountain-ash and its orange berries later on are both a beautiful sight to see.

All beautiful photos, Nikki! I'm very impressed by your knowledge of the flowers' names. I need to get a "wildflowers of Montana" book one of these days!

Thanks, Dana. My knowledge of flower names is limited, but increasing over time. I still refer to wildflower books and internet searches, learning as I discover. :)
