A familiar resident of the high elevations, this
is a Slate-colored Junco. You'll see this species mentioned
on one of the sign boards on the way up the trail. Often
times, the Junco will build a nest under the berm beside a trail.
As you come up on the nest, they will fly out of the berm and hop
down the trail just in front of you, which I speculate is to
entice you (the would-be predator) away from the nest.
