Very, very dry. Nectar sources however persist, mainly in the form of Nuttall’s thistle and purple thistle. Also being used is daisy fleabane, pickerel weed (in dried up ditch along Power Line Road), and some Coreopsis. Entrance road, Power Line Road, and Fish Hole Road all best areas for Lep activity.
