Default Help identifying Appalachain Plant

I ran across this plant while hiking around the Appalachain mountans a
while ago and I cannot find it's name or a reference to it. It's a
"white" plant, moderately translucent, void of noticable pigment. It
grows only one stem at a time and the flower resembles a bell hanging on
the top of the erect stem. They grew in small clusters. There don't seem
to be any leaves on the white stem. It may be a fungus and I'm barking up
the wrong tree.... but I seem to remember looking it up in the Audubon
guide to wildflowers once... but I can't find it again.

Any help finding a reference to the plant would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
-Chuck
