Was sorting thru some images and found this, I kinda liked it, looks like he is getting ready to rumble but as I remember he was sleeping.

Hey Gary,

May I ask where you saw this guy? He looks like pretty big guy. Moose are my favorite of the ungulates - though I don't get the opportunity to see large guys often. I did get to see a guy about this size in Wyoming this year by Oxbow Bend, but LOL, I got NOTHING of him even after sitting for over 4 hours one day.
Cheers

This guy was in the Gos Ventre campground, we spent 3 or 4 days there last Sept and also seen him there in Sept 2006,

He seems to have an inquisitive look to my eye. Good fortune to get that close.

LOL, I guess you thought I meant sleeping standing up, I meant at the time he was kinda acting sleepy not aggressive. I just didn't word it right. got lots of images of him lying down sleeping. Would love to see your images, post em here !

If you wish, you can see a few of my images at www.visceralimage.com

Thanks for the clarification, I always get a bit excited anytime I see moose pictures.

Hey Gary,

That's great. I had actually been looking for this guy this September. We had heard that there was a large bull in near by the campground. We did not see him that evening and we wound up heading towards Schwabacher's for sunset. We got nothing at Schwabacher's, but before the sun really went down, I was able to take this shot of the "Sleeping Indian." The view by the gros ventre camp site is quite nice (though there is another spectacular view from the Museum).

We stayed in the campground for a few nights and spent allot of time with him, he would lay around for 3 or 4 hours and be up for 10 mins, he stayed over by the little theater area quite a bit. I think we were there at the same time last year just never bumped into you. My plans are to be back there late Sept.

Hey Gary,

We were there from the 23 through the 1st of October. We actually did run into a couple of forum members while out at Schwabacher's. We - entirely accidentally - ran in to Bernie Weinzimmer and Paul Frye.

I am still working on plans for our next trips. I am working on booking a wedding in Jackson in mid August, but I want to go out for the Rut if possible as well.
