    This species is abundant on the Memaloose hills, a BLM tract on the Oregon side of the Columbia gorge, near Mosier. One of the beauty spots of the planet. Dang, New Mexico is nice, but I miss Orygun 8^(!

    Nothing like a good bighead clover year!

    Memaloose is a great name.

    I think this site is Stinkingwater (of Pass fame) also in Orygun.

    And these bighead clove sites are sooo … vulnerable to some of the expanding weeds if subjected to too much livestock trampling.

Fantastic, here are the ground rules: No personal attacks, profanity, discriminatory language or threats. Keep it clean, civil and on topic. The Wildlife News does not fact check every comment but, when noticed, submissions containing clear misinformation, demonstrably false statements of fact or links to sites trafficking in such will not be posted.
