Wildflower Hike - Green Lake (early)

The Carbon River area in the far northwest corner of the Park offers a great opportunity to see splendid early native growth. Starting at the park entrance experience a unique rain forest, follow a glacier fed river on the closed (permanently) Carbon River Road, and hike in one of the pristine old growth forests in the Park. Approximately 4.75 miles including the road. The best time is May - early June. Check conditions before setting out.

Printing Instructions: The two page map and guide are designed so that they can be printed back-to-back. If printed separately the print instruction should be set to "current page" for the map and then scroll to the guide page and print separately. The map and guide print very well on National Geographic's waterproof Adventure Paper. Print quality setting should be set on highest. The quality is acceptable on regular 22 lb. copy paper but heavier, or high resolution, paper is better. Photo paper or glossy paper improves the image but will probably not allow back side printing.
