Incredible wildflowers in mountain setting. Wildflowers usually bloom in July. This is a great location during summer months in the city. The road is closed during winter months. This is one of my favorite places! It gets crowded in the evening so I recommend shooting at sunrise. No dogs. Albion Basin in now requiring a permit $130 and a daily fee $50 to photograph. Permits take 2 weeks to process so please plan accordingly.
