Photographed on Moore's Mountain, just north of Boise, Idaho. This is one of the species in subgenus Dasanthera - the basal lineage of this very large and diverse genus of plants.
I just love the way the anthers are so hairy and the corolla is pleated. These are characteristics unique to the subgenus, and are ones important for pollination.
