Question
A clump of something grasslike beside a narrow trail in the woods in Lincoln, Massachusetts.
Answer
Dear jfc, you appear to have photographed Carex swanii (Swan's sedge), a native member of section Porocystis. You can confirm this by noting the perigynia (inflated scales with carpellate flower inside) are densely pubescent, which I believe I can determine in the image. Best wishes.
