The wildflowers along the Harding Ice Field trail were quite varied depending on the terrain. I enjoyed seeing these blue Lupines, red Western Columbine and yellow Paintbrush flowers. We were really surprised to be able to wear shorts in Alaska! The area was suffering through a heat wave when we were there, it got up to 90 degrees on the Kenai Peninsula. The locals were miserable!
These bright red and yellow flowers add a splash of color along the woodland trails. I found these on the Harding Ice Field Trail in Kenai Fjords National Park. I have seen these beautiful flowers blooming in Olympic National Park in Washington.
