Started seeing poppies on the way up Bursera. All the North-facing slopes were covered with yellow poppies. Very beautiful. Magical. All the way down to the bottom of the hill.

I saw one patch of poppies from National Trail near Goat Hill, but otherwise none. There likely were poppies on the steeper slopes not visible from the trail. Saw more poppies along the Pyramid Trail.
