This is a tree at the bottom of the East trail, near 27th.

Fawn Lilies on East Trail

This is off the trail to the right. I tagged it with a stick.

Same patch from top and bottom along white pipe.

Nice to see so many but none in the gravel. 

This low growing dogwood was about 50' to the left at the end of Engelman. 

Had a small clipper along so got a bunch.

Carried one stick and used only one coming down.

Got 3 miles done. 

I want a brooch like this!
