What's weird is that I've been traveling that road for hiking, sea kayaking, or visiting friends for over 40 years and have never seen one until this year.

Must be a change in their alpine habitat that's gotten them to make the big move down to the valley floor...either not enough food up there, or so much that there's been a population explosion and some were forced out for lack of territory.
There may also have been a decrease in a predator species...
