Let's go greet the marmots!

Less than 1.5 miles from our home is a large marmot colony, near a strip mall, that's providing us with guaranteed entertainment during our daily walk.

As we get out of the wooded trail, we hear their warning whistle, and as we get in view of their boulder habitat, they all start running for cover of freeze in place, hoping to blend-in with their background.

Much more so than moose or deer, Park City is a marmot-capital of sort, at least while the critters aren't busy hibernating...
