Mountain Blue-Eyed Grass

"Mountain Blue-Eyed Grass" (Sisyrinchium montanum)

These were growing along the trails by the lakeside ... easy to pass by if one didn't have their eyes peeled!

These are distinguished from Idaho Blue-Eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium idahoense) by the unequal length of the upper leaves just under the flower as seen in the above picture.
