At this time of year, a lot of elk will be found above timberline. They will congregate in large herds at seasonal marshes created by melting snow. Lots of grass and small broad leaf forbes are abundant for a month or so, in those marshes. The elk will stay until they have grazed off the grass. Then they will drop down into the subalpine zone. A good pair of binoculars makes it easier to spot them.
Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.
