Tucked up an abandoned logging road is Fairyslipper Falls.
You can hike right up to the pool that these falls fall into, staring up at the hundreds of feet in drop that these falls take.
A magical spot.

Calypso Orchid print.
They’re out in force in the coniferous forests!
They favor similar habitat to mountain morels so if you see them, keep your eyes peeled for morels! 🌸🌱

Pink fairyslippers [Calypso bulbosa] grow in young lodgepole pine fire stands in great profusion. Hundreds of clusters of hundreds of plants per hectare. A beautiful, impressive spring display, everywhere underfoot. 20 May 2025 Fisher FSR 20km, Northern BC, Canada #fairyslipper #wildflowers

The first of the spring #wildflowers are starting to pop up in the hills here on southern #VancouverIsland. Spring Gold - Lomatium utriculatum. This member of the carrot family is always early. The dark green leaves of Calypso Orchid - Calypso bulbosa are out too. #hiking #nature #botany

Lovely! It's been rainy here too and the robins are singing. AND I've been captivated by two (in different places) fairyslipper orchids.
