14.0 deg C. Clear skies. Calm wind.

What a time to be in the alpine. Flowers are still blooming in wet locations and at higher elevations. Globe flowers have micro dosed and are now hippy heads ! Paintbrush, asters, arnica, lupin, red monkey flow, red stemmed saxifrash on ridges, and some dwarf fireweed.

Hiking is open. Trails are open to mountain biking, Infinity north side of ridge is open with one snow patche remaining. The ice is off the lake! Day-trippers are welcome - all trail donations include a cold beer at Sol Lake. Please park up the road from our guest parking area.
