A Really Big Moose!

This weekend we hosted some good friends and fellow Bernese dog-lovers at our cabin. On Saturday evening we went for a drive to see if we could see some elk. Well, no elk, but we saw the biggest moose any of us has ever seen. Here is his photo:

We might be able to show you an even better photo when we get film developed. Lynne had a powerful telephoto lens on her film camera. (This image is from our digital camera and is digitally zoomed.)

  1. Okay, I don’t know how to use a camera. Here are a couple of “artsy” but out-of-focus photos of the moose.

  2. How Incredible!  Would you care to share where you saw him?  Last fall, my family and I had the great pleasure of watching two bulls spar for a minute or two and finally they crossed the road(80C) about 20 yards in front of us.  We have some nice video footage!

  3. Ray,

    Wish I had seen that!

    He was along 80C, but I’m not going to say where specifically. Last year, a bull moose was poached in SCP. The only thing taken was the rack. So, I’d rather not reveal the location in any more detail. I hope you understand.

  4. Rick,

    What a shame about the poached moose.  I totally understand your logic.
