Flower on Thorpe Mountain Trail

Here's a flower that I've not seen on any hike I've been on. It looks like an avalanche lilly with a strange center. Not sure what it's called. There were spots of them spread miles apart on the trail and only one or two in each patch. Very pretty and delicate.

Here is a picture from high atop Thorp Mountain. The view here is to the East. The south westerly view is of Mt. Rainier. Check back in the next few days to see it.

This guy was traped among the rocks as the tide left. He was being asaulted by seagulls. I wonder if it's still alive? Can you tell by looking?
