The road is virtually impassable due to mud and standing water. To get to the blooms I walked the short distance along the road past the vernal pools and up the small hill. Caution: At this time the oversaturated sand around the pools to the north of the road is similar to quicksand and you can sink knee deep in one step. …Anyway….once I freed myself and retrieved my shoe I eased on up the road.***. If one Continues up the small incline one will crest the hill stumble upon a beautiful display of Coreopsis, Tidy Tips, Goldfields, Filaree, Owl’s Clover and Larkspur.
