Description

We're sorry, but this class is over. The last meeting was Wednesday, June 4, 2025.

Different elevations and habitats provide opportunities to view a wide variety of Colorado’s native plants and wildflowers. Ridgway writer Mary Menz and Montrose photographer Jim Pisarowicz will share their extensive plant knowledge and excitement for the area with you. Slowly stroll along the Uncompahgre River as we look at blooming shrubs and early wildflowers of Ridgway. Each year brings a different perspective to the landscape depending on winter precipitation. Bring cameras and nature journals to satisfy your creative outlets.
Registration includes a copy of their book Common Wildflowers of the San Juan Mountains (second printing 2022). Special guest and fellow NPM Sandra Dick will also join the group as a guide!

All groups are limited to 12 participants. Participants will meet and carpooling is recommended—specific directions and more information will be provided via email prior to the event.

Register for one guided experience or all!
