This spot is also famous for its abundance of orchids. You can't walk 10ft without tripping over some massive clump of spectacularness. (I don't know whose photo this is... lost ID, sorry) Cypripedium flavum.

Holger Perner has some great photos of the orchids that he tends on the Cypripedium forum. here is a sampling of his photos. Cypripedium flavum and tibeticum.

Cypripedium plectrochilum, an incredibly cute Cypripedium arietinum cousin.
