Cranberry Glades is a mountain bog. It is a very unusual place to see in the West Virginia mountains. The plants above are pitcher plants, a plant I'd expect to see in coastal swamps. The bloom is on the left and the insect trapping parts are in the photo on the right, next to the ground. They contain a pool of digestive enzymes for our friends the insects.
This is an orchid found along the boardwalk in the glades. Grass Pink??
