Wow, stunning photos! I'd love to be walking along that ridge top!

... the most spectacular habitat photos!!

Well, no thanks to me but to the absolutely amazing scenery in the Rocky Mountains west of here! Drooling
I went back and added plant names to the previous photos.
Love that Phemeranthus photo... Hmmm, I should be trying that species here.

I don't know if you can see how the trees are smashed down in different directions in that last one...almost as if Paul Bunyan was playing golf on this course...probably not, but odd nonetheless

Isn't that strange. It looks like the stand is struggling with a disease or infestation of some sort in general, judging from all the brown tops, not just in the blow-downs. Maybe strong, swirling winds (plough winds?) are able to knock them down in their (presumed) weakened condition?
