NO.
NO.
NO.
You do not pick wildflowers.

Look up Wilderness. It is not a shopping mall.

Please do not visit again until you do.

Take only pictures.

Appriciate for your feed back. I assure you I'm quite familiar with wilderness ethics. The small, hand full of flowers that I picked for my wife will be back next year. What will also be there, in perpetuity, are the fire roads, jeep trails and human infrastructure. If we really want to go full Karen, should we even leave the pavement? I hear what you're saying though, thanks for the check.

Don’t break the law and snitch yourself out to the game warden or forestry ranger by posting what you did wrong.

Me and a friend went scouting a couple of trailheads for backpacking into Emigrant Wilderness. The wildflowers are still singing, so manly men that we are, we picked a bouquet for the wife. She loved it.

We were scouting Waterhouse Lake and Coyote Meadow trailheads. We tried a fwd route directly from Waterhouse lake TH to Coyote Meadow TH that shows on Gaia GPS. Got about a third of the way, and after a few interesting moves faced a rutted and loose uphill with a tough looking (to me) exit at top. Past that the trail didn't look like it eased up. Where I stopped was still reversible, so I reversed it back to Herring creek loop and up to CM TH. Any one been on that trail? I'd be interesting to know what I chickened out of.
