A MOOSE??!







He actually got pretty close to us (under 250ft) and the pond was definitely shallow enough for him to charge us. He seemed very mellow though, but I still desired to give him his space so as he got closer we moved to get into the car and observe him from there. He seemed to notice that he disturbed *us*, and hightailed it through the tall brush.

We decided to stay another night, rain or shine! (We got both!)

Some pictures of beautiful campsite #2:







Kile whistling "Xanadu" (by Rush, not Olivia Newton John, though both would have been enjoyable)








BTW... the moose came back in the evening... but just for a moment to pass by and check us out again, we didn't get any pictures. Seriously though, a moose?? Couldn't have asked to see anything cooler. Add that to the shot of the hawk in flight and I'd say it was a successful camping trip. I love living here in the rockies and I hope that when Gary gets back from his trip that he has some pictures to share too.

Thanks for letting me share mine, everyone!!!
