Stony Creek hike

addidadida
i like to hike up stony creek lots this years and document everything that grows there, but how to organize it so, that it actually makes sense to me. How do writers do that?

On the way up elevation from approx 2500 feet to 3500 feet
blooming:  astragalus,
                 cutleave fleabane (erigeron)
                 northern jasmine, fairy candelabra (androsace)
those three in the picture

i also saw crocuses, chickweed, lupines, kinnikinick, bearberry

And above the treeline blooming; douglasia,
                                                   anemone parviflora, windflower

                                                   tiny willows and the crocuses, the bearberries and kinnikinick

Astragalus?

well it's in the Fabacea (Leguminosae)pea family
an astragalus is a milk-vetch.
to me it doesn't look like a typical milk-vetch, and when i look through all the astragaluses (milk-vetch group) their flowers should be purple or yellow?
This one is  white and pink.

Is it the Astragalus bodinii?
