Stilt Bug

Stilt Bug
I photographed this near Diablo Lake in North Cascades National Park on a trip through the park in early August. The flowers are the Hooded Ladies'-tresses, Spiranthes romanzoffiana. I've submitted the insect to BugGuide.net for identification and it has been suggested that this is a Stilt Bug nymph from the genus Berytidae.
