Day Ninety-Six: Neat Little Dogwood at Powell Butte

"Small heads of inconspicuous flowers surrounded by an involucre of large, typically white petal-like bracts."  These look like bracts but not "petal-like bracts."

"Dogwoods have simple, untoothed leaves with the veins curving distinctively as they approach the leaf margins."  This description fits what we saw on the butte.
