Seven years, I was also at that spot. During that trip, I fired off some shots with my old Sony Mavica FD-91 camera.
One of the things I wanted to accomplish during the recent trip was to duplicate the shots I took during the 2001 trip.
For the most part, I was able to trade my low resolution images with higher and better images which made me happy.
However, there was one shot I wasn't able to duplicate. At the right spot, I waited and waited for the scene to duplicate itself. But alas, my traveling party wanted to go elsewhere and I didn't see the scene repeat.
So, rather than display a higher resolution and better quality image for this week's Camera Critters Meme, I'll show you a low res, okay quality image of a Golden-mantled Ground Squirrel sitting on a rock at the 7,949 foot high peak of Paulina Peak located within the Newberry National Volcanic Monument of central Oregon.

I earlier called this critter a Belding Ground Squirrel. Sure was a senior moment there..hehehe.

That's a great squirrel sitting very high! He has a splendid view over the country!
I LOVE it! I have some shots from the ol' floppy disk monster cam too which I wish were better quality, but can't stand to part with them.
My .. they look very much like our chipmunks! (I posted one a couple of CCs ago) I think they are very cute, but I think I heard that they are considered a pest in some parts of the US.

Looks like a beautiful place to visit. I'll add to my list.
