Fun, weird, helpful, or little known fact
A densely hairy, late-blooming, highly-branching (hence the name) Erigeron seen low and late on the Pass. Its stem leaves are characteristically almost clasping the stem. Lots and lots of flowers, replacing its earlier-blooming cousin, Erigeron flagellaris.
