This is a well maintained trail that follows along the Clark Fork river from Iceberg Meadow
to Boulder Creek. There is a 150' climb via switchbacks leaving Iceberg Meadow, but otherwise
the grade is fairly easy. At the Boulder Creek junction you can either continue on to Clark
Fork Meadow (5 mi) or go up the Boulder Creek trail to Boulder Lake (1.5 mi). The flower survey
ends at the Boulder Creek junction (marked with a signed post). Early in the season Iceberg
Meadow has many Water Plantain Buttercups, otherwise the flowers are typical of a mixed conifer
forest. (A small group of Alaska Rein Orchid might be found near an always flowing creek crossing).
