My recent posts would seem more cogent if my description of the elk counter made it to you. Twice this photo and my description have failed to upload. You could blame it on spotty reception, or is it an elk conspiracy?
Almost at the end of my hike, I saw more than a few elk blocking the trail. I remembered to stay 100 feet back. The elk, however, had failed to read the notice about giving Williams a 100 foot buffer. They came closer and closer as they munched vegetation.
At last, when some elk were within 5 feet of me yet off the trail, I walked calmly between them down the trail. As I passed, I saw dozens of elk off the trail and was glad I had not tried to go around them.
This photo reminds me of driving through yellowstone in 1990. Then, too, I took photos of elk that fail to capture the closeness of the encounter.
