Preston,

I agree with Jim - go to the Rocky Mountain National park. You are almost certain to see Elk and deer. Depending upon how much time you have available, make the trip over trail ridge while you are there. The alpine meadows, (maybe even snow on top of trail ridge)mountain vistas and wildlife are fantastic.

If you do not have that much time, just going into the park and and driving around is bound to provide good photo ops.

My wife and kids are driving over trail ridge today, so I will find out if there is any snow on top and let you know if you are interested.
