Pygmy/Dwarf Moss Gentian / Gentian prostrata

Pygmy/Dwarf Moss Gentian / Gentian prostrata
Oops, I fell asleep sitting in front of the TV straight after I uploaded these three images this evening! Can you believe it, I was in the next province, British Columbia, today?!! Friends Ron and Trish invited me to go with them as far as the amazing Takakkaw Falls, which are located in Yoho National Park, near Field, B.C.. I had never been there before. What an amazing day, seeing so much breath-taking scenery and enjoying great company! Totally dead beat now and will have to fall into bed soon. Thank you SO much, Ron and Trish, for treating me to such a special and thoroughly enjoyable day!!!

A few of us saw several tiny flowers - this is a macro photo - of this alpine Gentian species growing at Arethusa Cirque, Kananaskis, on July 30th (two days ago). By the way, I don't think these are the leaves that belong to this plant, but not sure. These flowers were barely noticeable, just small dots of blue down at ground level - and, oh, so exquisite!
