Human-modified ecosystem

It's difficult to visit many known American Pika sites right now due to muddy conditions on the trails leading to the talus. However, I did manage to find a new location near a ski lift access road and observe one from a distance. Colder weather in the coming week or two should allow better access, until snow starts to get deep.
