Pebble Creek and Trout Creek

Me and Ma went to pebble creek in Yellowstone park to find wildflowers - we hit it perfectly. Had a great sunny day (except for the hour of lightning, hail and rain right after lunch). Had four stream crossings where we put on our sandals - except the last one when Ma just walked through in her boots. This hike was done three days after a grizzly killed and ate part of a guy in a campground 10 miles from this spot - Ma was a little nervous but I felt good since I'm still faster than Ma.
Acres and acres of wild flowers in the pebble creek meadow

This one is for Anne, a ladybug on Arnica on the beartooth highway

Beautiful fuscia paintbrush on Beartooth Hwy.





Me and Ma did a short hike up Trout Creek near Helena. Lots of wildflowers, but the prettiest flower was this weed, thistle.
