One of the finest wildflower displays of our region can be found in the Neskonlith Meadows. The trail is on the Adams Lake Indian Band reserve so a permit is required from the Band Office (just across the bridge from Chase). Please be respectful of the wishes of the Band. A parking area leads to gate and a double track that winds up through the meadows to the forest and beyond to Star Lake. In early April, the first wildflowers (buttercups, yellow bells, fern-leaved desert-parsley, and yellow avalanche lily) emerge and by the end of June there are many wildflowers covering the meadows. Successions of wildflowers follow.

The meadows are open except for a few standing shrubs.

From the meadows, we can see across to Neskonlith Lake, with some ice still on the surface in early April.
