Marty’s photo of the day #4479: One of the cool things about living in a mountainous state like Montana is that for much of the summer, if you want to see spring flowers, you can just move higher. While my wife and I were staying at the Canyon Creek Cabin last week, the elevation ranged from 6,500 feet to 7,000 feet, and the “spring flowers” were blooming everywhere. This is a white mariposa lily with a bonus potentilla.
