User's notes
Not the best photo of this one, but they were all along the ridgeline and all had similar width sepals (more broad than I would think for B. montanus).

It has a large boxy labellum so I would be inclined to call this B. montanus. In contrast, B. umbrinus should have a narrower labellum.
