I followed Dean, Diane and Mary to the next wildflower site which was just a short walk away from the Ice Age Trail. We were on the hunt for Pasque Flowers. Good thing I had experienced wildflower hunters with me, because I walked right over them.
They told me there more last week, but I was happy to see any at all. Another new wildflower for me, and in a place I would have never expected. Driving by a spot like that along the highway you wouldn't see anything at all. And there was even some Prairie Smoke starting to bloom too.
I considered taking a short stroll on the Ice Age Trail, but the walk back to the car in the wind discouraged me and I kept driving as I passed the trailhead. I only work a half day Thursday and then I have a 3 day weekend so I'm thinking about camping again before my next wildflower hike. Hopefully the trees will start leafing out a bit more by then...and hopefully the wind won't blow all the wildflowers away.
