A few years ago, the kids and I hiked one of the paths up and over a small hump in the mtns there and back down to the car. Was about 7 miles. We decided to lunch at a small pond and as we were sitting there, the elk moved in to graze. We got up on a big rock to stay out of their way, and we could literally reach out from that rock and touch them.

I have not had the luck to see the bighorn sheep yet.

We saw many elk and also two moose, but missed the bighorn sheep as well.

Actually, my family was giving me a hard time when I ordered elk for dinner that night. ;-)
