Pasque Flowers are in Bloom!

Barb Rasmussen reports that the Pasque flowers are blooming at the preserve off of Piper Road.  Thanks to Barb, below are directions to the Pasque Flower Preserve.  Also, check out Barb's Pasque photos on the gallery (See upper right for Gallery tab).

Southern Kettle Moraine State Forest – Pasque Flower Preserve.  Pasque Flowers and Prairie Smoke can be found in April / May.
 From I-94 west, take Hwy 67 south.  Just past the Ottawa Lake area, turn left on Piper Road.  Just before you get to Ulrickson Road there will be a metal gate on the right.  Park along the side on the road (not in front of the gate).  Walk along the horse trail back into the prairie area.  These flowers can be found a short distance off the horse trail to the right in a large depressed area.
