Wildflower Walk on Ski Hill – WRI Bird Fest

Leader:  Don Schaechtel, Connie McCauley, Nancy Dunn

Trip Difficulty: Easy

Spend an afternoon walking the trails at the historic Leavenworth Ski Hill. You will discover an amazing diversity of wildflowers and flowering shrubs, with the possibility of a visit by a white-headed woodpecker. We will see camas, lupines, tiger lilies, false Solomon’s seal, Mariposa lilies, and many others. If that is not enough, you will learn how to tell the difference between arrowleaf balsamroot and mule’s ears. Handouts will be provided. Your guides are members of the Wenatchee Valley Chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society. Bring water, binoculars, and dress for the weather. Register through the Wenatchee River Institute Bird Fest at https://wenatcheeriverinstitute.org/bird-fest/schedule.html
