Hi, thanks for your question. The plant's common name is Pinedrops. The link above has another picture. Below, a link from the Forest Service with more info and range of the plant: https://www.fs.usda.gov/wildflowers/beauty/mycotrophic/pterospora_andromedea.shtml

Hope you find this helpful. Interesting find!
