Thought they were crustaceans

Thought they were crustaceans of some kind.

Looks possible

Do you remember size or habitat? I see it was a long time ago.

AT Whittier, I was mainly pho

AT Whittier, I was mainly photographing a Kittiwake colony so my first assumption is that it was salt water. However there were waterfalls protecting the colony and I can't remember or be sure that there wasn't some stream, but I think that is less likely.
My notes indicate that it was a 60mm macro lens at x1, so they were very small and I wrote pink eggs at the time, while I see that later I added Copepod and have the name Miller in my identifier column. So long ago I have no other recollection.

Salt or fresh

Either way, I do think these look like copepods, though I can't be sure. Their being out of water really threw me off at first. When I first saw this post back when it was in ID Request my first thought was mites, then crustaceans. I wonder why they're piled up like that.

Are they even insects?

Look more like Lawn Shrimp or something to us.

I have no idea what they are

They look like gummy bears, to me
