Bull Elk Bugle -Upper Beaver Meadows - RMNP

There are few sounds in nature as impressive as bull elks bugling during the rut. I had spent the day in Rocky Mountain National Park with my wife and toward the end of the day we went to Upper Beaver Meadows, set up and waited for the elk to arrive. This bull arrived soon after we did, along with his harem that totaled 47, of which 20-25 were cows. This guy is likely very tired by now!
