This is the largest known population of this species in the Willamette basin. Upwards of 50 plants here, if not more. Many were very young, suggesting that the plants here are reproducing frequently. This is the third new patch of the plant that I found on this day. Unfortunately, this site will likely be heavily impacted if not destroyed by quarrying operations. A road has been built along the top of this outcrop, and these plants are only yards from a large quarry. Not previously documented here.

Growing near the top of a rocky peak. This was the last patch I found on this day, and numbered 5 clumps. Most of them were growing underneath a small Oregon white oak tree. Unfortunately, this site is likely going to be destroyed by quarry operations in the future. A road has already been built to the top of this peak, and there is a large quarry a few hundred yards to the east. Not previously documented here.

This is the first patch of this species that I discovered on this day. At the time of its discovery, it is only the second known population in the Willamette Basin. By only a small margin, it was also the second farthest north. 4 clumps observed at this spot. There is likely more growing on the cliff above it, though it is hard to know. Unfortunately, this area is owned by a company that has begun quarrying the peak where this population is located. Eventually, I fear it is likely this patch will be destroyed. Not previously documented here.
