This was the solitary violet I saw in the area.
Locally common on a north aspect, just below a broad ridgeline, in mid to late flower. Last photo is of habitat / ground.
Photo 1 shows an 8+ petaled flower, which is a bit unusual for the species. The other photos show a nearby plant, with 6 (I think petals). Many individuals here have >5 petals.
Locally common, in early to mid flower here, just below Peak 7800.
Occasionally buttercups will bloom right at or below the edge of a receding snow patch, like this one here.
Buttercups are common here, on the north aspect of Peak 7800.
A gnarly old tree!
Petals are usually light pink, sometimes white, in these populations of buttercups, and always fade from whitish towards pinkish with age. The flowers in the last photo, though, didn’t look too young too me, and so, I think white color may persist with age in some individuals.
Locally common, in mid flower on north aspects.
Locally common, in mid flower on north aspects, late flower / past flower on northwest aspects. The flowers shown here were on a north aspect, below a ridgeline, growing in moist soil.
