If you read my other post this morning, this is Sheepeater Cliffs in Yellowstone National Park were we went several times to look for Pika. None on this morning, our first visit, but the cliffs are worth a look anyway, and this was the best light (and sky) we had on them. The Pika live in the talus slope below the cliffs. We did not see any this morning, perhaps because of the pair of guardians featured in my other post. The cliffs are columnar basalt from a lava flow 500,000 years ago and are named after the Tukudika, or Sheep Eaters\u2014a band of Eastern Shoshone Indians.
