Does anyone know if the wildflowers are out yet in Arches? Any good recommendations on some hots spots right now? I am getting the itch to shoot some wildflowers and have some time next week for an impromptu trip. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks, Chip

You're still a good month away from optimum wildflower season there, Chip.
The deserts of S. Calif. and central Arizona are looking pretty good, though.

Just got back from Moab last week nothing happening in the way of wildflowers. Did have some moisture however might end up being a pretty good year.

Maybe I'll hit the waterfalls in the Gorge...

Though admittedly the backdrops aren't always that spectacular here, it's more about the blooms themselves. But you gotta be quick!

1st and 2nd week of May are usually good for Moab
