In our lead photo, Pam Willison got a nice view from near the Swan Crest but . . .
. . . she didn't miss all the bugs and bees pollinating this Cow parsnip and . . .
. . . she came across a beautiful waterfall too!
Keith Hammer didn't miss the wild bees cruising through Bee Notch, where he also got . . .
. . . a nice view of Great Northern Mountain!
Pat Jaquith came across this Two-tailed Swallowtail butterfly and . . .
. . . a yet-to-unfold butterfly just emerged from its chrysallis!
Pat also came across some of those sticky looking Sub-alpine fir cones!
Skip Via found this gorgeous Sagebrush mariposa lily!
Ruth Quist came upon a showy Bullock's oriole and . . .
. . . a more conservative Western wood-pewee!
In our parting shot, Keith Hammer reminds us of why we all love those trails and views in the alpine high country!
