Today in the Swamp Creek canyon:

Pioneer Violet ~ Viola glabella

Large-leaf Sandwort ~ Moehringia macrophylla

Small White Violet ~ Viola macloskeyi

Siberian springbeauty ~ Claytonia sibirica

Smallflower Miterwort, Side-flowered Mitrewort, Cross-shaped Mitrewort ~ Ozomelis stauropetala

The yellow violets were blooming in the bubbling water of a spring that was flowing right out of a steep hillside. At the base of the hillside the water accumulated into a tiny stream and at the very edge of that, the white violets bloomed. A fairly subtle difference in habitat, but yet quite a distinct one.
