Yellow Mountain Saxifrage / Saxifraga aizoides


I think this was the first time I had seen this species, which I came across while walking round Forgetmenot Pond, Kananaskis, on August 16th. The flower is only very tiny, but quite beautiful when seen in macro size. Hoping I have identified it correctly. This native plant belongs to the Saxifrage family and grows on streambanks and scree slopes. The yellow flowers are 5-8 mm across and are often orange dotted, as in my photo.
