July 15 - Fairie Pinks/Clarkia Pulchella

These uniquely shaped pink flowers are abundant in the higher elevations of the HCNRA.  They were first collected by Meriwether Lewis on June 1, 1806 near what is now Kamiah, Idaho.  It is the only plant of those the expedition collected which bears William Clark's name.
These were photographed on the road to Dead Horse Butte.
