An earlier post included a link to the Forest Service’s “Celebrating Wildflowers” website. Rachel Potter points out that the site’s “Northern Region Viewing Area” page includes a nice description of wildflowers on the Lake Mountain trail in the Flathead National Forest. She goes on to mention that the route to Lake Mountain can also be accessed from Red Meadow — the same trailhead as Link Lake.

Website upgraded as Montana wildflower season approaches
From a recent post to the Missoulian . . .
The white on the ground remains snow instead of trillium petals, but wildflower season approaches.
To plan for that, consider an expanded U.S. Forest Service website that features great bloom locations across the nation. Montana has a dozen options, including the Lolo, Bitterroot, Kootenai, Helena, Gallatin, Custer, Flathead, Beaverhead-Deerlodge and Lewis and Clark national forests.
