Hidden Beauty in the Wasatch Mountains

You have to slow down to see this delicate White clover—but it’s worth every second.

Today following a familiar trail in the Wasatch Mountains, I stumbled upon clusters of delicate wildflowers unlike any I had ever seen.  They gathered together in quiet abundance, subtle yet striking, the awakening beauty in the most unexpected way.

Thankfully, I didn’t touch these flowers.  Later, I learned that they can irritate the skin or cause eye injury if touched and then rubbed.  

A reminder: always be careful with unfamiliar flowers.

Generally, life is good.

Lichens in Bloom

Bright specks scattered across the slender tree like tiny fires of orange and gold. Life has a way of flourishing in the most hidden places.
