The wildflowers are gorgeous in the late summer. Highlights include Clark’s Nutcracker on whitebark pine, spectacular views, paintbrushes, lupines, polygonums, buckwheats, fleabanes, prairie-smoke (Geum), and much more! A plant list for Carson Pass is posted on the El Dorado CNPS website under “Plant Walks”.
