A hike Pam, Carl, & I took from Bear Lake to Dream Lake (in Rocky Mountain N.P.). We caught a few afternoon rain showers & had to drop the rain shields on Carl's back pack (it's quite comical). We also got some great video of elk sparring.

We caught this little video of two elk sparring. They would graze for a while, then spar. This video requires the Windows Media 9 Series Codec, which can be downloaded at: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/forpros/encoder/default.mspx
