Silvery Blue

Silvery Blue
I believe this is the Silvery Blue, Glaucopsyche lygdamus, but am always willing to be corrected. There were a large number of these and of Acmon Blues at a muddy spot in the road when this photo was taken. The road was a Forest Service road in Derby Canyon near Peshastin, Washington.
