Wildflowers of Colorado

From Colorado's Premier Nature Photographer A Guide Book and Gift Book in One Contains 100 of John Fielder s favorite Colorado wildflower photographs chosen from thousands made over the past thirty years. In addition, John describes how to find and photograph wildflowers in northern, central, and southern Colorado. This is your opportunity to drive to the same places John visits May through August in the high country. The 100 photographs in this book are among John's favorites made over the past thirty-five years. Though some of the images in this book were made in remote wilderness, many were found right off the road! Wildflowers of Colorado includes descriptions of and directions to some of the most reliable places to find big meadows of wildflowers in northern, central, and southern Colorado mountain ranges and valleys. Sample text: The town of Steamboat Springs lies in the heart of northern Colorado's wildflower activity. Most folks get to Steamboat from Denver by taking CO 9 north from I-70 through Silverthorne. CO 9 parallels the Lower Blue River all the way to its confluence with the Colorado River near Kremmling. For the entire 40 miles, you will see many yellows including dandelions, mule's ears, and arrowleaf balsamroot, beginning early June and ending July. Check out the numerous dirt side roads from CO 9 to see hidden fields of lupine. The still-snowcapped Gore Range is in the background. One of my favorite two-mile hikes in Colorado circumnavigates Lower Cataract Lake on the edge of the Eagles Nest Wilderness. Wildflower varieties are numerous beginning end of June and one of the thickest fields of columbine I know grows early July on the south side of the lake. Take the first Heeney exit from CO 9 half way to Kremmling and look for the U.S. Forest Service road turnoff to the lake. And don t forget to pick up a copy of Colorado's best-selling travel guide John Fielder's Best of Colorado featuring 156 of John's favorite roadside locations for taking photos, including amazing wildflower meadows! It s the perfect companion guide to Wildflowers of Colorado.
