Muir Valley Memories

Our favorite wildflower. Actually a bush, the pink blooms of which blanket the Valley in May.

Getting ready to burst into bloom.

Blooming at about the same time in the spring, Rhododendron bushes are abundant in the Valley

These bushes are so thick in places that they form impenetrable jungles.

These magnificent wild orchids are the rare treasures of this area.
