This past weekend (March 21, 2015) we drove north to Colusa County to visit Bear Valley Road in the hopes of finding wildflowers. Last year we made the same trip on early April but were disappointed when we didn't find the fields of wildflowers we had hoped for. Fortunately, this winter brought more rain than the previous ones and the flowers were back--some say that 2015 is the best wildflower year California has seen since 2010.
Words can't describe the beauty of this very remote place in Northern California, so here are some photos to give you an idea of what it's like: Horses roaming free, cows grazing, old barns, mountains on both sides, and all of it surrounded by beautiful wildflowers! Enjoy!
