Here's a picture of the other wild orchid species we found at the park earlier this week. Took a bit of detective work to figure out exactly what it is, as I thought at first it was either Platanthera unalascensis or Piperia maritima, but I finally found the description for Platanthera elegans, aka Piperia elegans; Elegant piperia; Wood-rein orchid which matches the plants we found: slender leafless stalks at time of bloom, bright green flowers with yellow anthers and flowers have a slender spur that is 2 to 3 times the length of the lip.
