I spent the weekend at the Blue Lakes below Mount Sneffels. The wildflowers were still pretty nice up there

I'm finally getting around to annotating my photos from my Colorado trip at the end of June. I'd appreciate any help in identifying the flowers, some I know, some I'm not sure, some I have no idea.

These two were taken on the Snowmass Ski Slopes:

That's a nice collection of alpines. They're all fairly easy to identify:

IMG_9493: yes on the Caltha leptosepala

IMG_9497: White American Globeflower (Trollius laxus ssp. albiflorus)

IMG_9500: King's Crown (Rhodiola integra, aka Sedum integra)

IMG_9572: yes on the Alpine Primrose (Primula angustifolia)

IMG_9575: yes on the Forget-me-nots (Eritrichium nanum) and Dwarf Clover (Trifolium nanum)

IMG_9581: Old man of the Mountain (Tetraneuris grandiflora, formerly known as Hymenoxys grandiflora).
