Glacier Lily

Erythronium grandiflorum, the Glacier Lily blooms in the mountains at the edge of the snow melt and sometimes through the snow. They can be seen at different altitudes from April into August and are one of our favorite wildflowers. These were photographed in Washington Pass along the North Cascades Highway last spring, an area where we go every year to see them, though they can be seen elsewhere as well, notably along the Obstruction Point Road in Olympic National Park where they bloom by the millions in late July and early August.
