Wednesday DN hike

Wednesday was an interesting Pronghorn hike, with Eve leading us on a new connector in the land South of Del Norte and Hospital.  Lots of scenery, pleasant hiking, some up and some down and a few stretches almost level. Our small group was very interesting.  The Leader once from England, a second hiker from Ft. Collins and Australia, 2 recent residents of Del Norte (one will lead an informative geology tour on June 17at the County museum at about 9:30--all are welcome).  Then there were the four of us from South Fork, but each with other wide-spread origins.

It's a Daisy but you are welcome to tell me which species.

Closest I could come is Tansey Mustard but I'm needing help here.  Looks like gold-on-a-rock
