I know, more flora. What can I say, we were hitting on prime time in Glacier National Park.
UL Blanketflower
LL Nodding Onion
UR Twinberry Honeysuckle (Black Twinberry)
LR Utah Honeysuckle (Red Twinberry)
HONEYSUCKLE use by people: Natives used the leaves, bark and twigs for a variety of medicinal purposes. An infusion of bark was used as a soak for sore feet and legs, as an eyewash, or in the treatment of coughs. Women chewed the leaves during confinement. Leaves were also chewed and applied to itchy skin and various sores. The berries were mostly considered poisonous, but were sometimes eaten for food. The fruit or leaves were used to induce vomiting for purification or after poisoning. The berries were applied to the scalp to prevent dandruff or to prevent hair from turning gray. The juice of the berries was used to paint the faces of dolls and for basketry dye.
