Hiked about 1/2 mile to these bulls. Not a lot of snow makes it easy to still get around.

Nice work catching this shot. Looks a little thin in the neck and shoulders for a guy this size. Has the winter been somewhat tough on them there this year?

He does look a bit thin. Maybe he spent too much time chasing females instead of eating!

Nice shot.

The northern elk herd has had big time issues with starvation the past several years. Numbers are down. It's nice to see some open ground for them actually. Encouraging sign.

Nice capture.....I think people who have never seen one in real life underestimate how large these animals are.
