Look at the photo of the mountain lion. This is a young one. As I've said many times before, mountain lion sightings like this are common when 18 month old cubs are sent off by their moms in the spring to find their own territory. Some of them have not developed any fear of humans and seem "bold". It is true that the few mountain lion attacks that have occurred in Colorado have been young ones that have not figured out what they are supposed to do, like this one, so it is wise to keep your distance. Mountain lions usually have 2 or 3 cubs, so the multiple sightings make sense for a batch that have just been let go by the mother. Usually, they figure things out in about a month or less and are not seen again.
