I should probably get a flower book - any suggestions? I need to expand beyond "you know - the pretty purple ones..." Beargrass will ALWAYS be my favorite, though! 🏔️🥾

Beargrass in Jewel Basin, Kalispell, MT. One of my favorite places to get away from people and breathe freely.

Salkantay has a presence... a weight that you can feel.

Covered in clouds, mist, snow, and rain, it flitted in and out of visibility, and you could hear the avalanches crashing down into the distance.
