Went hiking up the hill behind our property yesterday and came upon a herd of 28 elk...I knew there was a herd up behind us as I had seen signs of them and had spent time trying to track and find them. As it so often happens...I was just moving up the hill trucking through snow up to my knees and I turned a corner and looked up. About 300 yards in front of me was the herd which was bedded down on a ridge enjoying an afternoon siesta in the sunshine. My dog, Mick and I, layed low and observed the herd for about 45 minutes until they had all gotten up and moved off into the trees and down into a canyon. I truly enjoy moments like that...completely unexpected...a gift.
