Moose!

I spent the day collecting info, having a look around, and walking down various roads and highways.

I saw a mother and baby moose on the way to the park Visitor’s Center. I also saw many snow shoe hares along the highways. The hares let you walk really close to them before they hop off, which makes me wonder how they survive at all when I am surely the slowest moving of any animal out here. Where is their sense of danger? Also, why do they hang out by the highways? I highly doubt the most delicious grass in all the wilderness grows next to it.

This bodes well for me though, animal sightings and not even in the park!
