"A flowers appeal is in its contradictions - so delicate in form yet strong in fragarance, so small in size yet so big in beauty, so short in life yet long on effect."
~Adabella Radici

Alaska is home to an abundant array of lush vegetation that is sure to please all who experience it.

A walk in the woods, along the lake, or even around the lodge grounds will bring you in contact with a great variety of beautiful, useful, and even edible greenery.

From the spring fiddlehead ferns (don't be surprised if these turn up on your dinner plate!) to the summer and fall blueberries, raspberries, and high bush cranberries, the area around HiLine Lake offers a tasty bounty to bush residents and visitors alike.

The towering Cottonwood and smaller Alder, Pine and Birch trees contribute not only wild beauty, but also provide firewood and building materials.

A spring carpet of Dwarf Dogwood and delicate, white Starflowers give way to an explosion of summer blooms. Prickly Rose, Wild Iris, and Salmonberry combine with Chiming Bells, Wild Geranium, and Fireweed to create an amazing blend of color.

Photographer or wildflower lover, the color and variety are stunning........
