As I followed trail 460 upward toward Cube Iron Mountain the weather looked as though it might be about to bring a bit of rain and so I focused more on the landscape than on the flora, leaving most of that to be documented on the return trip (I love to photograph wildflowers in the rain anyway). Here are a few photos taken on that return trip of some of the wildflowers still blooming at the higher levels, several of which were new species for me.
Sickletop Lousewort, Pedicularis racemosa
Northern buckwheat, Eriogonum compositum
Subalpine Daisy, Erigeron peregrinus
Pink Monkeyflower, Mimulus lewisii
