Speyeria coronis
Bright orange butterfly commonly found in alpine meadows and woodland edges.
Alpine environment.
It's hard to say. I'm inclined to agree with you though. Thanks for your input!
I have my doubts about Cybele. In my eyes this one looks more like Speyeria coronis, female (!). Other similar ones would be Callippe and Zerene. Please, verify yourself:
