Flora is an easy mountain to scramble but for an old guy that is not the problem. It is the extra day it takes to get from Holden over a high, dry ridge and drop into Riddle Creek to camp. In the fall you will find very little water on this day.
I climbed Flora Mountain in the early fall when the larches were just starting to change color. I took pictures on the way up Flora, at the summit and on the way down.To flip through a few photos of fall color on Flora click here.
