Orchids and Butterflies in Blewett Pass
 

Blewett Pass runs north and south from Ellensburg and Cle Elum (where there is a forest fire burning now) to Leavenworth on the east side of the Cascades. It is a great place both for native orchids and for other wildflowers and our last trip there found it a butterfly paradise as well. The photo was not taken on this trip nor at this location, but further north in Blewett Pass near Red Top.

If you come out we can show you some of these places.

Lovely! The butterflies are beautiful - great photos (as always!)

Thanks (as always), Sonya.
