Grasses in Yellowstone National Park in an area where it doesn’t seem anything should grow. The photo was taken somewhere along the Firehole Lake Drive.
Actually, it is not snow, but calcium carbonate, I believe, or mud. It does look like snow. It also is hard to imagine anything growing in some of these areas. I took the photo along a road called Firehole Lake Drive. Yellowstone has a lot of land like this. Beautiful. And eerie.

Beautiful! Those grasses can teach us a lesson to dig in our heels and thrive during difficult times! z

I love the way the snow sets things up – great contrast.

Thanks for setting me straight. I have seen similar scenes with snow, as we often get our first flurries while plants are still green!
