Pretty hot here now with temperatures over 100F. Went for a hike in the mountains where it was a little cooler, but not cool, elevation between 8000 and 9400 ft.
There were a lot of wild flowers out saw some buck rubs and kicked out a few grouse, but one stayed on the trail for a while.
We waited and saw her chicks too, she was trying to distract us from the chicks.
Snow is about gone everywhere and a little hazy from fires in the west
A good day overall
