May 16 Indian Creek Trail Hike

Fairy Wand

Indian Creek Trail from the Dan River access to the Visitor Center and back should pass me by the best Laurel display in the park.

Turkey Beard


I went to see the Mountain Laurel bloom. It looks like a below average bloom this year. The Pink Lady Slippers were past peak. I saw 2 dried up flowers and the vegetation for another 8 or so plants.
