    Oxytropis sericea, perhaps, for the first. Could also be Oxytropis campestris. A variable group of species in that genus, to say the least.

    The other looks to me like the blue-listed Lomatium brandegeei. Locally abundant in the few places I've seen it in the province, but overall uncommon.
