Mystery Plant (??)

Calling all botanists...I was resting on a log coming back from the Lakes the ohter day at about 10K ft, near the creek, when this really cool plant caught my eye in the morning sun. From above, the leave curves reminded me of SW sandstone. This was shot about 2 ft above the plant.

Since that aint gonna help anyone, here's the plant as i viewed it initially, from the side. Ok, what the heck is this?? (winner get's their favorite beverage next time i see them )

Corn Husk Lily, a common plant across most of the Colorado Rockies.

Corn Lily. Often confused with Skunk Cabbage. Kind of like photographing green slot canyons in miniture.

Thanks Don and George, i thought it reminded me of skunk cabbage, which i used to see all the time out east, but didnt think they growed out here. Thanks!!

Also known as False Hellebore. One of my favorite plants to photograph here in Colorado. In fact, for the last three years I've made trips up to the Capitol Creek road about this time of year specifically to shoot the Hellebore. Great big patches of it! Here are a couple shots from up there:

Thanks for posting that, Brent, that first shot is totally cool, makes me want to head up there!
