I have taken thousands of pictures of these guys but only a few times have I gotten images of them standing up. Kind of fun as normally you get them just sunning on the rocks at high altitude. With all the lingering snow in the Colorado high country, they will have a bit shorter season to prepare for the next winter and their eight-month long hibernation.
