Kniphofia on Mt. Hood?

There's a single Rhododendron macrophyllum
in a logging area behind my own property that I think must have
arrived via
bulldozer, because this is below the normal elevational limit for
that species.

Jane,

I'm surprised. Macrophyllum grows at almost sea level here and in
the Olympics, though of course it does grow in the mountains too.
