Hello Moose

Twas the week before Christmas

when what to our wondering eyes should appear

but a huge male moose to wish us good cheer!

Look at this beauty we encountered 30 yards or so off the trail. Once he noticed us, he
started to saunter off the other direction away from us.

Watching INTENSELY as the moose saunters across the meadow and eventually up into the
forest across the way. Max & Zorro were mesmerized watching this big beauty wander away.

Twas the week before Christmas

when what to our wondering eyes should appear

but a "moose trough trail" to follow - all cheer!

Different part of the outing and we encountered this deep "moose trough trail" to follow for a
while. Notice how the trough is almost up to Max & Zorro's shoulders. Moose sure are tall!

Twas the week before Christmas

when what to our wondering eyes should appear

but another moose camouflaging her good cheer!

Another one! Not as close as the first one, but our noses lead us to peek across the gulch and
spot a female moose watching us from the camouflage of the trees.

Oh yeah, we were skijoring today in between moose events: 8.2 miles traveled with 900 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 19 MPH.

2015/2016 Season to Date: 37 days on the trails covering 308.4 miles with 32100 feet of elevation climbed.
