This is Penstemon davidsonii var. davidsonii. It’s one of the favorites that you can find in the subalpine areas of the northern Olympic peninsula. We found this sample on the Slab Camp Trail, not far from Deer Park.

It’s so pretty. I’d love to see the petals up close. Does it have a smell?
Ha. These days if I got down on the ground to sniff them, I’d need help getting back up. Maybe a hoist!
