Hi Scott,
Lee and I may have seen something similar near Lake City, Colorado (San Juan's) on 4th of July weekend in 1999. We thought we were seeing greenish LEDs glowing in the road embankment. Closer inspection showed that they were larvae, and the back third of each creature was glowing. I remember them being larger than the bugs you describe, and the non-glowing part of the bodies was pale. They didn't blink like lightning bugs, but continued to glow steadily throughout the evening. We never identified them, and the locals seemed to think we were kind of nuts when we described them.
We'll go out looking for them tonight.
Thanks,
Kathy

Has anyone else seen tiny glow bugs around here? Not lightning bugs, no
flying going on, but glowing butts just like a tiny (1-2mm) lightning bug
but stuck to the ground. First I've ever seen was last night about 9:45.
Pretty. wild.
