I went to bed last night intending to hike close to home in the McDowells this morning, but when I got up it felt like a good day for a hike to Ord, so I made a beeline for the Slate Creek TH.

Wildflowers were decent for about the first 3 miles or so of FR 27.

Wildflowers Observation Moderate
Arizona penstemon won the wildflower derby today, with purple nightshade and globemallow also putting on a good show. A few other flowers had their moments also.
