I had more problems finding the trailhead than could ever be had on the trail itself. The 41 road is a little rough in a few places for my Elantra, but slow and steady get the hiker to the trailhead. The flowers in this setting right now are great. Huckleberry, Blueberry and Salmonberries were the staple vegetation while prominent flowers included paintbrush, lupine, agoseris, columbine, spirea, penstemon and bunch berry among others. This year, the third week of July is near the height of the summer flower season at Silver Star. I climbed to the top of Little Baldy Peak, but ran out of time to get to the top of Silver Star itself. The trail is in great shape.
