Mountain Lady's Slippers

At one of our stops while traveling to Edmonton, we photographed these Mountain Lady's Slippers. In fact, we went out of our way about an hour to visit the location and get photos. These were past their prime but still nice and we stayed long enough to enjoy their beauty. Like the other Lady's Slippers I've posted recently, these vary in color from green to very dark mahogany, some flowers also having crimson markings on the staminode and pouch opening.
