| Graves Creek Outing June 2019 |
|
| You may not know this about me, but I have a
thing about bear grass. I really love bear grass. I don't know
why, but I get really excited about the short season when it blooms each
year. One Saturday Buddy and I headed up Graves Creek road into the
Ten Lakes Recreation area near Eureka to see some bear grass and stretch
our legs. |

My Subaru looked so at home in this scene, I thought I'd take a picture of it. |

Two of my favorite things - Buddy & bear grass! |
 |
| The first of the bear grass we found. There was more as we went higher into the mountains. | |
Buddy, checking out the bridge for me. |

| Bear grass galore in this old avalanche slide. | |
 |
 |
| I was being greedy - trying to capture the purple flowers, bear grass,
trees, and sky. It was a little more than my photography skills would allow, but you get the idea. |
Interesting information about early use of the area, if you can read it at
this size. |

This is my favorite bear grass picture of this outing, I saved the best for last! |
