Sorting out the island’s flowers….

You’ve always wondered what those flowers on the trail were (I know I have) – now you can find out! Here’s more from Louisa and Ann:

Spring is coming!  Catch the bloom!

Wondering what that flower is that you saw on the trail?  We have a new way to find out!

The San Juan Island Trails Committee, a committee of Island Rec, has developed a new web tool for island wanderers on many of San Juan Island’s trails.  Just go to the San Juan Island Trails Committee’s website (sanjuanislandtrails.org), click on “Trails”, click on the name of the trail that you wish to walk, and print its map if needed.

Then click on “Plants” to access the new downloadable pdf file of plants to be found along your selected trail. (Note: Plant lists for all trails are not yet available.)  Print the specific trail plant list and the legend, grab your favorite field guide book, and you are ready to go for a “walk in the woods”.
