Coordinator notes: Another Freija (Lesser) Fritillary (like you had in Park County a couple weeks earlier). Both Silver-bordered and Bog Frits are found in that area but you have to get right at or into bogs at or just below timberline to find these. The Bog flies earlier (starting mid-June, depending on snow pack) than the S-b (starting in mid-July normally in the mountains). Mike
