Leave Nothing But Footprints – #4 Rock Creek Vista Point Trail
This is my contribution for Heaven’s Sunshine’s weekly challenge, “One Step At A Time”.
So come along and hike with me, one step at a time!
Rock Creek Vista Point Trail, Beartooth Highway (US Rt 212), Montana
1/4 mile round trip
We are at 9,190 feet in elevation.
Rock Creek Vista
What a view!
Easily spotted along the trail were Golden-mantled ground squirrels climbing on the rocks. Piles of unshelled nuts and empty nut shells were scattered, obviously enticing these squirrels to make their home there.
9–12 inches long
7.4–11 ounces
They were indeed adorable and an added bonus in seeing the gorgeous vista!
Take a hike, short or long, one step at a time.
Mother Nature promises to reward you.
And please remember~~
Leave nothing but footprints.
Kill nothing but time.

Those squirrels look a lot like our palm squirrels
Beautiful pictures
Such beautiful scenery!
Love your cute little squirrels. I loved chasing them when I was last in Britain especially the rare red squirrel in Scotland as we do not have them here.
