Manning Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada
« on: January 02, 2016, 05:54:41 AM »
Here on the west coast of North America, Manning Provincial Park is about 2 hours east of Greater Vancouver. Rhododendron macrophylla reaches it’s northernmost limit here, as does Lewisia tweedyi. The Lewesia is found as one colony along the hike to Frosty Peak, a gruelling 10 hour, knee killing foray in and back. About 100 km south, as the crow flies, one can drive up to Chumstick Peak, just outside of the Bavarian themed town of Leavenworth and  frolic among the Lewisia, without the bone jarring hike. A few of the photos, including the Lewisia, are from this area, a drylands Artemisia habitat. On the opposite side of the road from the Frosty Peak trailhead in Manning Park a  decent park road climbs  to the ridge of Three Brothers Mountain, reaching the  same elevation as the aformentioned Frosty Peak, albeit without the Lewisia. There are a host  of interesting alpines in the mountains around us , I’m remiss in not frequenting them more often. Each year I promise myself to amend that , perhaps that should be one of my New Years resolutions. As an assist to the search engine , in almost alphabetical order here’s a list of posted photos. Amelanchier alnifolia  , Anemone occidentalis, Antennaria  lanata or Antennaria media, Aquilegia formosa, Arenaria capillaris, Aster alpigenus perhaps, Asteraceae maybe Packera cana, Balsamorhiza sagittata, Calocortis elegans, Castilleja hispida, Castilleja parviflora va. albida, Chimaphila umbellata, Claytonia lanceolata, Delphinium glareosum, Eriogonum sphaercephalum, Dodecatheon pulchellum , Eriogonum thymoides, Erythronium grandiflorum, Ipomopsis aggregata , Lewisia tweedyi,  Lilium columbiana, Listera caurina, Monotropa uniflora, Luetkea pectinata, Lonicera ciliosa, Pedicularis bracteosa, Penstemmon davidsonii, Penstemmon fruticosus,  Penstemmon procerus, Phlox diffusa, Phlox hoodi , Phyllodoce empetriformis,  Plantanthera stricta,  Potentilla sp., Pyrola picta, Rhododendron macrophyllum, Ribes sanguineum, Ribes viscosissimum, Saxifraga integrifolia , Spiranthes romanzoffiana ,  Vaccinium scoparium, Valeriana scouleri,Veratrum viride , Viola adunca
