After paddling Surrey Lake, I walked some of the trails and backroads, enjoying the relatively quiet (except the Coquihalla Highway) forest.  A few photos are shared here.

Yellow rattle (Rhinanthus minor) had grown to the point of flowering in open areas.  It is a hemi-parasistic herbaceous perennial.   Other names are hay rattle and cockscomb.

Black twinberry (Lonerica involucrata is a deciduous shrub that small yellow trumpte-shaped flowers in late spring – early summer, then black berries form in summer.    The petals have just dropped and the berries are still green in this photo.

Fireweed will continue to flower for much of the summer.

In a damp soil area water hemlock (Cicuta sp.) was in full (poisonous) bloom.

Yellow velvet beetles seem to be on every water hemlock plant I encountered.

Two types of arnica were spotted in open areas by the edge of the forest.

In the lake were many yellow waterlilies (Nuphar polysepalum) emerging and blooming in shallow bays.
