Thistling in the Wind

Coming off the mountain at Slate Peak, I saw several different types of wildflowers in bloom. One that caught my attention was the purple thistle. I am not sure of which kind it is exactly, only that I believe it is listed as a noxious weed in Okanogan County. It sure has a pretty bloom though.

Weekend Reflections - Mountain Magic

As I was changing my shoes for the short hike to Slate Peak, I looked to my right at a very shiny and large truck bumper. I liked how the surrounding mountains were reflected in it. Hope you enjoy it, too.

It may take me a few days to visit your blog this week. I am off to Canada, eh?!

A panorama I put together of the view from Slate Peak. This one is definitely worth enlarging.
