I'm over in the PNW, about 45 mins south of Seattle.
The whole area is scattered with big anthills like this; I think these ants have some kind of communal hive thing going on where they cooperate rather than compete, but I'm no expert.

I don't check it daily so it's possible that I'm late to catch on, but this was the first time all winter I've seen activity on the hill. They're moving slowly, presumably to conserve energy.
A good lesson, that: Move slowly. Conserve energy.
