Details: Rocky Mountain National Park in the fall is one of the best places in the country to photograph elk. The air is crisp. The landscape is colorful with fall aspen leaves. And the elk can be heard bugling throughout the park. Elk behavior is also at its best with aggressive bull elk fighting for their harems of cow elk. In addition to elk, we plan to photograph deer, marmots and the fall landscape.
