Against the cabin wall

I love the little McDougall Church, seen in the next photo posted today, especially the long, photogenic fence line leading up to it from the parking lot. These cheery Fireweed flowers were growing against the side of the small cabin that is on the site. Taken on 20 July, when my daughter and I called in, on our way to Bow Valley Provincial Park. The small, white flowers are some kind of Campion (Silene). Lots of beautiful Harebells in the area, too. Fireweed is a native plant, growing in open forests, riverbanks and areas that have been subjected to forest fires. Especially when there is a patch of these tall plants, it makes a beautiful splash of colour. Belongs to the Evening-primrose family. Fireweed is the floral emblem of the Yukon. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamerion_angustifolium
