This bull elk had his harem and appeared ready and willing to defend it. This year's rut looks like the best start in a number of years. Hopefully there will be plenty of action experience and document.

Thanks for looking,

Moose

Last week we heard the magnificent bugle only 5 or 6 times. Bet that will increase rapidly, too.

^ The only reason I know that, by the way :whistle:, is that I saw a news report today about how the new .xxx Internet domains are open for business and how there's a strong connection to here in South Florida. (They weren't specific enough about that connection to provide examples, however.)

I bet you can't say that about Estes Park, elk rut or no! HPH
