High Country Sentinel

Marmots are a familiar summer sight above tree line in the Colorado Rockies, sunning themselves on boulders and disappearing into crevices at the first sign of a predator. Peering out from beneath a slab of weathered granite through wild yellow cinquefoil flowers, this one held its ground just long enough for the shot. These alpine rodents spend their short summer fattening up before a long winter hibernation beneath the snow — a quiet reminder of the resilience required to call the high country home year-round.  Printed to order on archival paper, canvas, acrylic, or metal in sizes up to 48×72.
