Don't remember the elevation, maybe 11,000 something... but I hiked to the peak of Mount Rose outside of Tahoe. It just so happened the monarchs were migrating through at the time and it was the most incredible thing I've ever seen. There must've been millions of them everywhere. It was like a black cloud flying around us. So many were on the trees it looked like the trees were breathing.
