Found along Spring Creek, which drains into Antero Reservoir, which is where @scottysmith found this species. Several plants observed, none with apparent flowers or fruit.

From the monitored population near Bonnie Reservoir.

These beautifully tall forms of Cirsium scariosum var. coloradensis. These were all over the US Army Base called Camp Hale. Just northwest Leadville Colorado.
