In unusually hot weather, we can find them at 8k and above, on the north slopes hiding in steep black timber to stay cool. They'll come out about sundown...if they feel like it. Well, I said 'we can find them'. I should have said that's where they'll be as usually we can't find them. Steep black timber can be very noisy walking and they'll hear you coming and scram.

By late Sept, they're wearing their winter woollies. They're dressed for -20. If it's +80, they have to find a place to stay cool and it won't be easy to get to it.
