Very cool! Thanks for joining the mission and for the additional info! Elks are some of my favorite animals to watch and photograph! Was this up on Trail-Ridge Road?

I couldn't capture them all in the shot. It was interesting to see. There was one bull who must have been the leader. He watched over the herd until all were safely across the road and on their way up to where he stood.
