I couldn’t believe how much wildlife I saw on just my first day in Rocky Mountain National Park – three moose, probably a dozen elk, and a marmot that scampered away before I could get a shot of him. The bigger mammals seemed to pay no mind to the humans watching them. On my way out of the park for dinner, I pulled over on the side of the road where I shouldn’t have so that I could get a good shot of a couple moose feeding in a pond. A ranger ended up shooing me away, but not before the bull and I made eye contact.
