Your basic Whistlepig ....there's all kinds of those little buggers running around up there at high elevation.

Marmot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I guess you took a ride over Ca 168....did you go to the Bristlecone Pine forest?

Good afternoon Jeff, Michelle, & Steve.
Steve, that is where we were was in the Bristlecone Pine Forest. Thanks for that info. That explains his lack of fear. They are very social animals. I have been up there several times but never saw them before. We only live 117 miles from Bishop. I love that area. I went to Horse Shoeing School in the early 90s in Bishop. So I lived there for 3 months. We still run our old original Nevada Blue license plates with the County designations. Growing up in Hawthorne With Mineral County plates the older Bishop people treated me as a local.
When going to school there I got to know many of the Rancher & Pack Station Owners. It is a play ground for you So Cal people I understand fully it is a beautiful area.

Michelle, I know in summer things slow down here. I was just trying to spark some more interest & trying to be funny also.
Craig

I love that place! I've ridden my enduro up Silverpeak Road out of Laws a few times. You're on top of the world up there.

I got a new toy last weekend and have been doing all sorts of reading on it. There are more mods for these machines than a diesel truck. They are soooo much fun. The UPS man will be stopping by my place at least once a week for a while now..

Good evening everyone. only 99 degrees & 5% humidity here today.
Nice ride William, We looked at them at an RV Show in Reno. I tried to talk my wife into buying one so she could commute to work. But without a heater & cab she wasn't going for it.
