That is cool, Roger. I have never seen a heard of bachelors larger than 8 - in the Spring. Now that I think about it, the Elk Heard at Jackson is the largest I have ever seen and of course, they artificially change the dynamic by feeding everyone and keeping the herds together.

WOW! What an impressive group. I thought the herds at Redwoods NP were something but small potatoes compared to this bunch. Nice job Roger.
