Sam,

I believe the pics in order are:

P-U-S-S-Y Toes (the politically correct cussword checker keeps not letting me post this word without the dashes)
Liverwort (just past blooming)
Saxifrage
Cut-leaf Toothwort
Your great Trillium!

These will be irises (probably Dwarf Crested) in a few weeks: http://www.weathermansam....0210rainbowmtn/_1572.html

These things are always up there, those less this year than in the last two years.  I've seen them at Monte Sano as well.  That's cool, though!
