The photo above shows Oregon anemone
as seen in the forest between the Snipes Mt. Trail #11 Trailhead and the Gotchen
Creek Guard Station, Gifford Pinchot NF as seen on May 7, 2005. The similar
Lyall's anemone has shorter sepals (generally less
than 10 mm long) and fewer sepals (less than 35). A good place to see both side
by side is in late May to early June along Crofton Creek where the Crofton Ridge
Trail crosses it, on the south side of Mt. Adams.
