I was googling "conical white flower Mount Hood" and came up with nothing. Then dropped the conical and eventually found your post. Bear grass! Who named them?

The tiny seashells flower is a species of Rubus, but not sure which. The mat of feathery leaves with little white flowers, after the wooden sign, is partridge foot. I'm not sure about the white blooms before the arnica, but it looks so familiar.
