Yellow Columbine

Yellow Columbine – Yellow Columbine appears in a number of places in Yellowstone National Park.  They can be found in the Old Faithful area, near Isa Lake, and along the Chittenden Road.  This common wildflower prefers moist, acidic soils of rocky ledges and screes, mountain meadow, and alpine slopes.  There were literally hundreds of them on the Chittenden Road when I made this photograph.
