Beautiful colors of the Glacial aven aka Alpine Aven along the ridge of the mountains in Hatchers Pass. A very unexpected surprise to see these flowers and so many other in full bloom in such a hostile place.
A species of flower related to the rose family. It is usually found on the hillside of mountains where glaciers once were.
Not quite the top of the mountain due to the low cloud ceiling. I stopped to take in sunset to the left and the incoming storm all around me. You never know what kind of weather you are going to get when you visit Hatcher's Pass.
