'Far as the eye can see': Fields of 'suncups' are covering the Sierra

California conservationist Beth Pratt was hiking in Yosemite National Park on June 25 when she came across miles upon miles of suncups.

“I’ve been hiking in the Sierra for 33 years,” said Pratt, regional executive director of the National Wildlife Federation’s California Regional Center. “I’ve encountered them a lot but never to this extent. That was something. First, in how much coverage there was of them, and then the depth. The depth was something I’ve never encountered. Some were up to my hips, and saddling them got uncomfortable, as you can imagine.”
