Our hike last summer in the Colorado Rockies was the best wildflower hike I've been on, though the scenery was the main attraction. These are Mountain Bluebells, Mertensia ciliata, photographed along the Maroon-snowmass trail west of Aspen.

Even the buds are beautiful on these Virginia Bluebells, photographed in Aman Park in western Michigan. The flowers would have made an even better show, however, and that we missed.
