This site includes photographs, presentations, plant lists and personal reflections by Doug Krajnovich, along with references to the 1985 booklet “Wildflowers of the Hite’s Cove Trail” published by Stephen J. Botti & Ann Mendershausen in that year.

“I pray that when you chew on these stones you will taste some of the affection that I feel for the wildflowers, great and small.” ~D. Krajnovich, 2026
