Mineral King Wildflowers

Due to a late winter, increased family responsibilities, time at Hume Lake, and a Shaver Lake reunion, my visits to Mineral King have been fewer this summer than in previous years. Have a look at a recent visit, a non-hiking sort of look.

It is a remarkable year for water and for flowers. This area usually has Tiger (or Leopard) Lilies, but this year it has many other flowers as well.

In spite of having spots instead of stripes, these are more commonly called “Tiger” lilies than they are called “Leopard” lilies.
Yet another yellow flower that looks like many others, this one is Arrowroot Groundsel (and doesn’t appear in my book).
