#hiking, #troutlily

#Erythronium 'Pagoda'. Many sources suggest it is a hybrid of E. tuolumnense and E. 'White Beauty' (itself a selection of E. californicum)

Trout Lily or yellow trout Lily, erythronium americanum, a perennial flower native to North America. It blooms in the early spring and dies off before the tree canopy fills in. In traditional medicine it is used to reduce fevers and heal wounds. It's also edible and can be used as a trail snack.
