Image of American Pika

Description:

Elevation approximately 7,400' or 2,250 m. This is the lowest I've seen a pika colony in the Sierra Nevada. The end of the Tokopah Falls trail from Lodgepole Camp passes right through the start of their talus habitat, and this picture is from right next to the trail. The talus here is adjacent to riparian and shrub dominated habitats, with woods also nearby.
