Can anyone confirm the identification of this?  Picture taken in July last year near Kandersteg, Bernese Oberland.

Orchids are notoriously difficult to identify even when you have them in front of you. This one looks like Dactylorhiza fuchsii to me but I could be wrong - were there spotted leaves?
